♫ Verse 1:
E
 Born in the war
                                C#m
You had dreams of bein' a ballerina
                                   F#m
I saw the photos last time that I seen you
                                       Bsus4
You had my mum when you were twenty-three
   B                                    E
I heard that she was trouble just like me
                                         C#m
And you like paintin' pictures, writin' poems
                                           F#m
I guess that's why my words just keep on flowin'
                                          Bsus4
I wish that I could read the things you write
      B
I'm tryna learn the language so I might

♫ Pre-Chorus:
E
 Three generations born in different decades
C#m
 Some things have changed but we've got the same old heartbreaks
F#m
 You tell me stories that happened back in your day and
Bsus5                     B
 I find it funny, 'cause somehow I still relate


♫ Chorus:
     E
We're dancing in different clothes
            C#m
Falling in love until we let it go
             F#m
But there's magic in something as simple
      Bsus4                   B
As three women, sitting 'round a dinner table
N.C.
 Nästa
Stockholm Södra


♫ Verse 2:
E
 You tell me you've
                                  C#m
Been in love with Elvis since the 50s
                                  F#m
How my mum danced to Bowie in the 80s
                                             Bsus4
But I'll never truly see things through your eyes
       B
'Cause all the pictures, they're in black and white


♫ Pre-Chorus:
E
 Three generations, we've all made our mistakes
C#m
 I look in the mirror
I see your face in my face
F#m
 Everyone who knows us thinks that we're all crazy
   Bsus4                     B
But I guess that's exactly what makes us a family


♫ Chorus:
     E
We're dancing in different clothes
            C#m
Falling in love until we let it go
             F#m
But there's magic in something as simple
      Bsus4                   B
As three women, sitting 'round a dinner table


♫ Outro:
Asus2                     E
 All the good old days and the city lights
C#m                    B
 Those little town jobs when money was tight
F#m                  E
 All your vintage pieces
I'm wishing were mine
C#m                 B
 All our darkest moments, our wildest fights
Asus2              E
 All the names we cursed 'cause their love was a lie
C#m                   B
 All the secrets we'll keep until we die
Asus2               E
 It's something as simple
    C#m                         B
As pouring your heart right out
     A                   B                   E
As three women sitting 'round a dinner table
