         G                     C
Alright, now take one look at me,
                G                C                G     C
Cause it's the last you'll ever see because I'm leaving
G       C
tonight.
           G                     C                G
And just think about it, you'll never have to be embarrassed,

                   C                  G     C
In front of your friends and family again,
    G          C
so enjoy it.
         D#
And the air will be better,
        D#
It will feel much thinner.
           D#
There will be no more excuses,
          D#
And no more covering up your face.

         G            C
And I'm going to run away with my baby,
      G               C                   G   C
Get married and maybe someday we'll have kids
C                  G          C
that you'll never meet.

        G                C                 G                          C
And I'm gonna tell them stories of how the grandpa would bathe in the glory
           G       C
of all his power,
             G           C
And use his fake friends.


            D#
And see the air will be better,
        D#
It will feel much thinner.
         D#
It will feel like heaven.
         D#
It will feel so good when I am gone.

           G                     C                  G
Now see I don't know what you think, you're just a kid.
     C                             G      C     G     C
Only 18, where do you think you're going?
            G              C
See, you've got nothing to stand on,
                 G              C
You don't have a better place to live.
                G     C
And you'll be wishing
                 G          C
that you never left.
       D#
And the air will be thicker,
        D#
It will be hard to breathe sometimes.
           D#
You won't know what hit you,
          D#
You'll be sad and lonely before you know it.

     G                 C                      G
Now, don't go make a decision that's going to leave your life down a
C                     G     C     G    C
collision course of failure.


              G                     C
But you're a grown up now, you're 18.
            G           C                        G          C
Just don't come running back to me when you need something,
           G      C
My door is locked.
         D#
And the air will be humid,
        D#
It will give you headaches.
        D#
It will make you sweat.
        D#
It will be a mistake if you go,


G C G

            C                 G                 C
And I won't be there to cover up your tracks no more.

G C

G          C        G
Dad, I'm leaving tonight,
           C
You can't scare me anymore.
    G        C              G
And I don't need this in my life,
         C
I don't need it anymore.
G          C        G
Dad, I'm leaving tonight,
           C
You can't scare me anymore.
    G       C                G
And I don't need this in my life,

          C
I don't need it anymore.
  D#
Goodbye.
