[Verse 1]
D Bm
I'll watch and learn from afar
A6
I'll pull the weeds from my heart and
Gmaj7
Put lipstick on for your family party in the garden
D Bm
I stare at the house you were brought up in
A6
All the photographs and door frames are wooden
Gmaj7
I wish I'd known you when you were younger, before lovers
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
Cause I've changed my accent
A
And I gave a false name
Gmaj7
I hope I throw a party in a house of my own someday
Bm A
When you were a kid, you'd come in through the back gate
Gmaj7
Your folks left the light on in case you came home late
[Chorus]
D
I bet you grew up eating at the table
Bm
Fed love on a silver spoon, reasons to be grateful
A
You ask about kids, I don't know if I'm able
Gmaj7
I bet you grew up being asked how your day was
D
I bet you grew up grazing your knees
Bm
But the fall wasn’t fatal like it was for me
A
We’re the product of love that we do not receive
Gmaj7
I'll corrupt every branch of this family tree
[Verse 2]
D Bm
I spilled the good wine, I panicked
A
A disaster, a knee jerk reaction
Gmaj7
And everyone around us starts laughing... Is that how it's meant to happen?
D Bm
Oh, your mother said I'm always welcome
A
To visit, to takes second helpings
Gmaj7
I said no thanks, I'm so full on resentment that I learnt to fend for myself
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
You were sweet, I got mean
A
And when we fight, I refuse to eat
Gmaj7
You’re sensible, I'm hating it - what a good job that your mother did
Bm
You were kind, I was cruel
A
In another life, maybe I was you
Gmaj7
And I grew up into something good, somebody who could swallow love
