Verse 1
G
Three days I've
Bm
Em
carried all my stuff down from the attic
D
and cut it up into two piles.
C
The things that hurt
Am
I threw into the bathtub and burned.
G
The things that made me smile,
Bm
I cleaned them up,
D
Em
set them up in rows around my bed
D
so I could see them all together,
C
Am
and then address each one in turn.
G
The first thing I held
Bm
was my mom's dissertation.
Em
She had it bound into a book for me
D
when I was only fourteen.
C
She fought eight years
as a single mom
Am
with four kids for that PhD.
G
I never read a page of it,
but I remember her crying
D
alone at her desk
Em
when she thought me
G
and my sisters were asleep.
D
C
She tried so hard
D
to keep us far away from any weakness
G
Then I picked up Chris's diploma
from Brown University
Em
And I remember how he asked me
not to attend the ceremony
D
C
But I hid in the back
when he walked up to get it
F
Am
My heart screamed his name
G
when they said it
I found the plaque Sarah made
Bm
when I first got pro moted
Em
She'd somehow found
out about it before I did
D
C
And had it mounted on the office door
D
before I even got in
G
A hologram of our first family vacation
With the rain and the mos
Em
quitoes and the flu
Bm
G
C
And Sarah and I juggling two screaming kids,
F
I don't know how we smiled for the whole thing,
but we did.
G
I smelled Zoey's baby clothes,
my first program coat.
Em
Leotards I wore on my head
G
when I was just four years old.
C
The first cartoon I drew,
Am
Chris's first pair of shoes.
G
The last thing I held
was a picture with no date.
Em
I had so much hair though
Bm
D
that I must have been 27 or 28.
C
I must have been warming up for a show,
Am
or may be just getting on stage.
G
I'm sitting on a leather couch,
D
I'm in the back room of some club.
Em
I have my old rap hat on
Bm
and there's this beautiful girl
C
leaning down above me
And I'm showing her my silk shirt
Am
and I'm smiling and it's love
G
The hopeful look on that face
makes me wince
Em
Haven't seen that look,
G
C
haven't seen that face since I
take it into the bathroom,
Am
light it up and throw it in
G
I empty out the medicine cabinet
D
into my shaking hands
Em
G
And my fingers look so new for a second
I wonder who I am
C
I quickly stole them away,
Am
back into my pants
G
D
My boss says he'll live to be 140,
Em
ex -boss, he's all into enhancers
G
and attachments and stuff
D
C
And when I ask him why
Ab
he wanted to be around that long,
he got all up in a huff
G
Bm
Some people feel like the world wants them around,
Em
that's fine
D
I decided 10 years ago
that I don't want all that time
C
Ab
For me, 76 is enough
G
For me, 76 was too much
