Lyrics

[Intro]
| E | - |

[Verse 1]
C#m7
I   forget how the West was won
A
I forget if this was ever fun
E                                     B
I just learned these people only raise you
To cage you
C#m7
Sarahs and Hannahs in their Sunday best
A
Clutchin' their pearls, sighing,
what a mess
E                                       B
I just learned these people try and save you
'Cause they hate you

[Pre-Chorus]
C#m7            A                  E
    Too high a horse for a simple girl
             B
To rise above it
C#m7                   A               E
    They slammed the door on my whole world
                   B
The one thing I wanted

[Chorus]
       E
Now I'm runnin' with my dress unbuttoned
A
 Screamin', "But Daddy, I love him
   B
I'm havin' his baby"
No, I'm not,
A
 but you should see your faces
   E
I'm tellin' him to floor it through the fences
A
 No, I'm not coming to my senses
 B
I know he's crazy,
                A
but he's the one I want

[Verse 2]
C#m7
Dutiful daughter, all my plans were laid
A
Tendrils tucked into a woven braid
E                                 B
Growin' up precocious sometimes means
Not growin' up at all
C#m7
He  was chaos, he was revelry
A
Bedroom eyes like a remedy
E                               B
Soon enough the elders had convened
Down at the city hall

[Pre-Chorus]
C#m7                 A              E
    "Stay away from her," the saboteurs
             B
Protested too much
C#m7                A               E
    Lord knows the words we never heard
                             B
Just screeching tires of true love

[Chorus]
           E
And now I'm runnin' with my dress unbuttoned
A
 Screamin', "But Daddy, I love him
   B
I'm havin' his baby"
No, I'm not,
A
 but you should see your faces
   E
I'm tellin' him to floor it through the fences
A
 No, I'm not coming to my senses
 B
I know he's crazy,
                A      E
but he's the one I want

[Post-Chorus]
                             A
I'll tell you somethin' right now
                             B
I'd rather burn my whole life down
                          A
Than listen to one more second of all this bitchin' and
moanin'
    E                                A
I'll tell you somethin' 'bout my good name
                      B
It's mine alone to disgrace
                             A
I don't cater to all these vipers dressed in empath's
clothing

[Bridge]
C#m                      A
   God save the most judgmental creeps
                         B
Who say they want what's best for me
                                            C#m
Sanctimoniously performing soliloquies I'll never see
                A
Thinkin' it can change the beat
                    B
Of my heart when he touches me
                                             E   B
And counteract the chemistry and undo the destiny
                    A
You ain't gotta pray for me
              C#m
Me and my wild   boy,
                   B
and all of his wild joy
E B                       A
   If all you want is gray for me
                 C#m
That's just white   noise,
              B
that's just my choice

[Verse 3]
C#m7
There's a lot of people in town that
     A
I bestow upon my fakest smiles
E
Scandal does funny things to pride,
           B
but brings lovers closer
C#m7
We  came back when the heat died down
A
Went to my parents and they came around
E                                            B
All the wine moms are still holdin' out, but fuck 'em,
it's over

[Chorus]
       E
Now I'm dancin' in my dress in the sun and
A
 Even my daddy just loves him
   B
I'm his lady
      A
And oh my God, you should see your faces
     E
Time, doesn't it give some perspective?
A
 And no, you can't come to the weddin'
 B
I know it's crazy,
                A      E
but he's the one I want

[Post-Chorus]
                             A
I'll tell you somethin' right now
                    B
You ain't gotta pray for me
              A
Me and my wild boy,
and all of his wild joy
E                           A
He was chaos, he was revelry
                   B
If all you want is gray for me
                 A
That's just white noise,
that's just my choice

[Outro]
E A
   Screamin', "But Daddy, I love him
B                 A
 I'm having his baby"
No, I'm not,
E       A                  B
 but you should see your faces
      A
But oh my God, you should see your faces

[Fade Out]
E A                           B A
  He was chaos, he was revelry
