Your mother used to take the cure
C#
She kept plastic on the furniture in the living room
You used to tell your friends
F#
If you never saw that place again it's be too soon
But your college beau didn't seem so bad
C#
You brought him home to Mom and Dad like you're 'sposed to do
But he wouldn't account for himself
F#
And he got along better with the hired help than he did with you

Your father always held his ground
C#
He never liked you hanging round with the lesser kind
He suffered not the weak
F#
And he was never loath to speak his twisted mind
He liked to watch an evening pass
C#
Clinking the ice in his bourbon glass while you played your scales
With eyes that burned right through
F#
He would say he always knew you were bound to fail
B
C#
Shake it off and let it go
F#

Brush it away till the light it shows

We can't help what came before

You gave us all quite a scare

Don't sweat the losses, let em go

Toss em all out where the tall grass grows
