[Verse 1]
What did your father [Em]say
to you
When he reached [Bm]right through you?
Did he say the [Em]things that he had learned
From his father, [Bm]too?
So when do you be[Em]come your own,
you
Become your [Bm]own you?
Or are you just [Em]a shadow of
something more?
[Bm]

[Verse 2]

We are chinese boxes
[Em]Equal parts present and past
[A]Where do I begin and end up?
[Em]Saw those old eyes staring
right [G]back [D]at [A]me[Em]

[Verse 3]
So tell me what you [D]need[A][Em]
I'll be watching [D]out [A]for [Em]you
There are no en[D]emies [A]onl[Em]y
dangerous [D]friends[A][Em]
You grew up very [D]fast[A][Em]
I didn't think I'd mis[D]s

Just try to understand
[Em](a wise old man, a wise young
fool)
(notice me, comfort me,
under[Bm]stand me)

[Verse 6]
What'd your father [Em]say to you
To turn you [Bm]cold? Father
never [Em]quite grew up
He just grew [Bm]old and if
I was [Em]to say to you
You know I love him [Bm]still
Would you think [Em]less of me
for [Bm]hating [A]me?

[Verse 7]
We are chinese boxes
[Em]Equal parts present and [A]past
We are so unconscious
[Em]Saw those old eyes staring
right back [G]at me
[D][A][Em]

[Verse 8]
So try to under[D]stand[A][Em]
I'm just like [D]you, and [A]you [Em]me

Are the debts of the [D]son,
