That's The Way Ive Always Heard It Should Be chords by Carly Simon

Guitar chords with lyrics

G
My father sits at night with no lights on
G
His cigarette glows in the dark
Dm7
The living room is still
G
I walk by, no remark
G
I tiptoe past the master bedroom where
G
My mother reads her magazines
G
🎸
Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
I hear her call sweet dreams
G
But I forgot how to dream

Em
But you say it's time we moved in together
Cmaj7
And raised a family of our own, you and me
Em
Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be
D
You want to marry me, we'll marry

G
My friends from college they're all married now
G
They have their houses and their lawns
Dm7
They have their silent noons
G
Tearful nights, angry dawns
G
Their children hate them for the things they're not
G
They hate themselves for what they are
G
And yet they drink, they laugh
G
Close the wound, hide the scars

Em
But you say it's time we moved in together
Cmaj7
And raised a family of our own, you and me
Em
Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be
D
You want to marry me, we'll marry

G
You say we can keep our love alive
G
Babe, all I know is what I see
Dm7
The couples cling and claw
G
And drown in love's debris
G
You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds
G
But soon you'll cage me on your shelf
G
I'll never learn to be just me first
G
By myself

Em
Well O.K., it's time we moved in together
Cmaj7
And raised a family of our own, you and me
Em
Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be
D
You want to marry me, we'll marry
D
