Verse 1
(A minor) There's an unwinding
thread in my father's jeans
And that thread keeps unwinding
since the split at the sea
The bloodline is frayed
This old pair has had their day
Oh oh (C major) (D major) (G major) oh oh (F major) oh oh oh
Those (E minor) baby blue (G major) jeansBlue (A minor)
like I've never (C major) seen
You're the bluebell (G major) that never rings
(C major) An (G major) d I'm the rose that
you nev (F major) er saw bloom
Oh, (C major) how we all need some
A Sunday after (A minor) noon
Where I (C major) would be the sun
Yeah, could (G major) I be my (E minor) moon
An (G major) d I (F major) want to follow you into,
want to follow you into the (C major) dark
My (A minor) youth won't ever change,
not even until (C major) the new light,
un (G major) til the new light (F major)
I've (E minor) seen your (G major) soul (A minor)
And your feet barely touch (C major) the ground
You don't know me (G major) at all
Cause you've never been around (F major)
You (E minor) were (G major) nev (A minor) er at
the football game
Never tearin' me up
Charlie, (C major) that's my son
You see him runnin'
(G major) He's just like his father
He was born to run
(F major) I won't (A minor) follow in your footsteps
Never put myself in your shoes
When I (C major) came of age, my mother
Gave me the right to choose
You've (G major) been walking on these ledges
Never thinking what you'll lose
Oh, I'd (F major) rather take it step by step
Put myself in your shoes
How it all leads (C major) to
A Sunday of (A minor) the moon
Where (C major) I would be the sun
You could (G major) be my (E minor) moon
I (G major) don't (F major) want to follow you until
I want to follow you to the (C major) top
My (A minor) youth won't ever change,
not even
(C major) Unto the moonlight, un (G major) to the moonlight,
un (F major) to the moonlight
I'll watch the (C major) dying run
out of those dreams
Into the water where I stand (F major) (C major)
(G major) It of (C major) fers more than a reflection
(G major) of everything I (F major) want to (G major) be
It of (F major) fers love (E minor) and affection
I (G major) never found (F major) from those jeans
(G major) With a love (C major) for my mum (F major)
Who proudly call (E minor) s me her son (F major)
(G major) The wilder (C major) his name (F major)
He brought (E minor) us to shame (F major)
(G major) Does it (C major) hurt to know I call
this my mind, (F major) Dad?
Oh, I (E minor) give you the (C major) trust
that you never know
(G major) What (F major) you could have had
(G major) And as a father (C major)
you should set an example (F major) to me
And you tell (E minor) of everything
that I (G major) don't (F major) want to be
I'm (G major) dead, (C major) I'm (F major) dead (E minor) (C major)
(E minor) Oh, (F major) how we (C major) only shared
a (F major) Sunday afternoon
(E minor) (F major) (G major) Well, (C major) I would be your sun,
you could (F major) be my moon
I would've (E minor) followed you into,
(F major) would've followed you (G major) into the (C major) dark (F major)
But (E minor) you won't ever change, (F major)
not even (G major) under (C major) the moonlight
I don't (F major) do the moon (E minor) (F major) (G major) (C major)
(F major) (C major) (F major) (G major) (C major)
(F major) (G major) (C major) (F major) (G major)
(C major)
(F major) You (G major)
