Intro
Cm Ab (2x)
Ab Cm
You should have listened to what your mother said
Cm
You should have listened to what your father told you to do
Ab
But you always did just what you always wanted to do
Cm
Now you end up here singing in a gilded cage
Ab
And for half your life you were wishing you were half your age
Ab Cm Ab
Lady let it lie
Ab Cm
It's hard putting down family roots when you're living in
Cm Ab
D mobile home, but there's always blood even in a rolling stone
Cm
You squeezed me hard for the white collar dream
Ab
But you woke up to a tie dye lifestyle and its choking me
(Chorus)
Eb Ab Eb
All the boys want to be all the girls want to be all the boys
Ab
I don't want to be me no more
Eb Ab Eb
All the boys want to be all the girls in this turnaround world
Ab
I don't want to be me no more
Ab Cm Ab
Lady let it lie
Cm
They once said I was a rising star declaring me a bright contender
Ab
When it all worked out I was just a young pretender
Cm
I could never disagree if you said you were dissatisfied
Ab
But why you got to take it out on a guy that tried
(Chorus)
Eb Ab Eb
All the boys want to be all the girls want to be all the boys

Cm
Maybe there's something left, something worth fighting for
Ab
Something out of all this mess that's worth building on
Cm
Maybe we can start again, maybe give it one more try
Ab
Do we just walk away, maybe let it fade and die
(Chorus)
