[Verse 1]
Dm                                   Am
You don't recognize yourself, or the bottles on the bathroom shelf
    C                                        Dm
You search for words, and curse the hand you got dealt
Dm                                  Am
It was a poetic attempt, I wouldn't call it a try
         C                                           Dm
When you went down to the pond, no note to slip cold through thin ice
 
[Chorus]
                     F           C
And you don't get to go out your own way
                 Dm      C           Dm
You don't get to choose.....so just spare me
 
[Verse 2]
Dm                                  Am
Between you and the kids, I've been lifting and cleaning
C                                   Dm
Feeding and bending for over twenty years now
                                         Am
We might be standing here looking at the end of our world
            C                                     Dm
But there's beauty in knowing the closure you owe to your girls
 
[Chorus]
                     F           C
And you don't get to go out your own way
                 Dm      C          Dm
You don't get to choose.....so just spare me

[Verse 3]
Dm                                         Am
So let go of how it gets worse, remember I signed up for the work
           C                                     Dm
We'll find drops of goodness, so many to make it worth it
                   Am
Holding on to each other in the quiet light
C                                         Dm
Bird watching, sky watching, sunsets, and moon rise
 
[Outro]
                     F           C
And you don't get to go out your own way
                 Bb                  F     C
You don't get to choose.....what you spare me
               F                      C
I know you're afraid of becoming your own ghost
         Bb   C                      Dm
Afraid I know...but you don't get to go
         Bb   C                      Dm
Afraid I know...but you don't get to go
