[Verse 1]
Bmadd9/D                               Gmaj7
          My father sits at night with no lights on,
Bmadd9/D                             Gmaj7
          His cigarette glows in the dark,
Dm9
      The living room is still,
Cadd9                    Am/G     Ab   G
      I walk by, no re - mark------------!
                        | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / |
 
[Verse 2]
Bmadd9/D                           Gmaj7
          I tiptoe past the master bedroom, where...
Bmadd9/D                             Gmaj7
       ...My mother reads her maga - zines, 
Dm9
       I hear her call, "Sweet dreams!"
Cadd9                    Am/G    Ab   G
       But forget how to dream----------!
                       | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / |
 
[Chorus]
Fmaj7                           Em7
       But you say it's time we moved in together,
Dm7                               Cmaj7
       And raised a family of our own, you and me,
Fmaj7
       Well, that's the way I've always...
Em7                             A               D
Heard it should be, you want to marry me, we'll marry
 
[Verse 3]
Bmadd9/D
           My friends from college,
            Gmaj7
They're all     ...married now,
Bmadd9/D                                 Gmaj7
         They have their houses and their   ...lawns,
Dm9
      They have their silent noons,
Cadd9                       Am/G    Ab   G
      Tearful nights, angry dawns----------!
                          | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / |
 
[Verse 4]
Bmadd9/D
          Their children hate them...
        Gmaj7
For the things they're not,
Bmadd9/D                                     Gmaj7
          They hate themselves for what they are,
Dm9
        And yet they drink, they laugh, 
Cadd9
        Close the wound,
         Am/G      Ab  G
Hide the scar------------!

[Chorus]
Fmaj7                           Em7
       But you say it's time we moved in together,
Dm7                               Cmaj7
       And raised a family of our own, you and me,
Fmaj7
       Well, that's the way I've always...
Em7                             A               D
Heard it should be, you want to marry me, we'll marry
 
[Verse 5]
Bmadd9/D                                  Gmaj7
         You say that we can keep our love   ...alive,
Bmadd9/D                            Gmaj7
         Babe, all I know is what I see,
Dm9                                Cadd9
       The couples cling and claw,
                         Am/G    Ab   G
And drown in love's de - bris----------!
                       | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / |
 
[Verse 6]
Bmadd9/D
          You say we'll soar...
                  Gmaj7
...Like two birds through the clouds,
Bmadd9/D                                  Gmaj7
          But soon you'll cage me on your shelf,
Dm9                                 Cadd9
     I'll never learn to be ...just me first,
        Am/G      Ab  G
By my - self------------!

[Chorus]
Fmaj7                           Em7
       Well, okay, it's time we moved in together,
Dm7                               Cmaj7
       And raised a family of our own, you and me,
Fmaj7
       Well, that's the way I've always...
Em7                             A
Heard it should be, you want to marry me,
         D5
...We'll marry-----------------!
