There's a [Ab] good tradition of [Db] love and hate [Ab] staying by the [Eb] fireside
VERSE 1:
And though the [Ab] rain may fall, your [Db] father's calling you [Ab] You still feel [Eb] safe inside
And though your [Ab] ma's too proud, your [Db] brother's ignoring you [Ab] You still feel [Eb] safe inside
REFRAIN 1:
Oh, [Db] was this solo? [Ab] Was this yesterday? [Eb] Was this true for [Ab] you?

This [Eb] didn't do a lot for [Ab] you
VERSE 2:
And the [Ab] corners laced with [Db] memories [Ab] Tell you how it [Eb] used to be

REFRAIN 3:
Oh, [Db] was this solo? [Ab] Was this yesterday? [Eb] Was this true for [Ab] you?
'Cause while [Db] all the choices [Ab] you have made
This [Eb] didn't do a lot for [Ab] you
