         E                     A
Alright, now take one look at me,
                E                A                E     A
Cause it's the last you'll ever see because I'm leaving
E       A
tonight.
           E                     A                E
And just think about it, you'll never have to be embarrassed,

                   A                  E     A
In front of your friends and family again,
    E          A
so enjoy it.
         C
And the air will be better,
        C
It will feel much thinner.
           C
There will be no more excuses,
          C
And no more covering up your face.

E A E A


         E            A
And I'm going to run away with my baby,
      E               A                   E   A
Get married and maybe someday we'll have kids
A                  E          A
that you'll never meet.

        E                A                 E                          A
And I'm gonna tell them stories of how the grandpa would bathe in the glory
           E       A
of all his power,
             E           A
And use his fake friends.


            C
And see the air will be better,
        C
It will feel much thinner.
         C
It will feel like heaven.
         C
It will feel so good when I am gone.


E A E A 2x


           E                     A                  E
Now see I don't know what you think, you're just a kid.
     A                             E      A     E     A
Only 18, where do you think you're going?
            E              A
See, you've got nothing to stand on,
                 E              A
You don't have a better place to live.
                E     A
And you'll be wishing
                 E          A
that you never left.
       C
And the air will be thicker,
        C
It will be hard to breathe sometimes.
           C
You won't know what hit you,
          C
You'll be sad and lonely before you know it.


E A E A

     E                 A                      E
Now, don't go make a decision that's going to leave your life down a
A                     E     A     E    A
collision course of failure.


              E                     A
But you're a grown up now, you're 18.
            E           A                        E          A
Just don't come running back to me when you need something,
           E      A
My door is locked.
         C
And the air will be humid,
        C
It will give you headaches.
        C
It will make you sweat.
        C
It will be a mistake if you go,


E A E

            A                 E                 A
And I won't be there to cover up your tracks no more.

E A

E          A        E
Dad, I'm leaving tonight,
           A
You can't scare me anymore.
    E        A              E
And I don't need this in my life,
         A
I don't need it anymore.
E          A        E
Dad, I'm leaving tonight,
           A
You can't scare me anymore.
    E       A                E
And I don't need this in my life,

          A
I don't need it anymore.
  C
Goodbye.
