Cb D#m
You should have listened to what your mother said
D#m
You should have listened to what your father told you to do
Cb
But you always did just what you always wanted to do
D#m
Now you end up here singing in a gilded cage
Cb
And for half your life you were wishing you were half your age

Lady let it lie

It's hard putting down family roots when you're living in

F mobile home, but there's always blood even in a rolling stone
D#m
You squeezed me hard for the white collar dream
Cb
But you woke up to a tie dye lifestyle and its choking me
(Chorus)

Lady let it lie
D#m
They once said I was a rising star declaring me a bright contender
Cb
When it all worked out I was just a young pretender
D#m
I could never disagree if you said you were dissatisfied
Cb
But why you got to take it out on a guy that tried
(Chorus)

Maybe there's something left, something worth fighting for

Do we just walk away, maybe let it fade and die
