The AARP Is After Me Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I[A][D][G][D][G][D][G][D]
remember
when my father used to [G]yell,
[D]Shook the drywall in the house,
And whenever he came home,
[G]I thought the walls were coming[D] down,
But they never really did,
[G]And god damn this house
was built [D]so well,
[Bm]But I was youn[D]g and couldn't tell,
[G]That I was suffering in hell
[D]I remember when my m[Em]ama used to cry
[G]And kiss my dad [D]goodbye
Cause you don't work your 9 [Em]to 5
[G]His [D]job is saving lives
And when he gets home from the war
[G]His hands are on [D]the floor
[Bm]Scrubbing shit [D]from someone else
[G]And saving love from a divorce
[D]White picket [Em]fence around my yard
[G]Two brand new cars in the garage
[D]My father wor[Em]ked so goddamn hard
[G]May God bless the U .[D]S .A.
But now I get [Em]why [D]my d[Em]ad s[D]cre[G]ams
Cause I'm as angry as can [Bm]be
I look [D]like him, he looks like [G]me
I guess we're both living the [D]Amer
ican [Em]dream[G][D]
What the [Em]fuck is men[Bm]tal [D]health?[G]
[D]That's a silly fucking name for me
Just [Em]wanting to kill mys[D]elf
[G]I guess you're bound to
get [D]what you [Bm]paid for
When you get [A]high [D]when
you're only twelve
[G]But you really only wan[D]ted advic[Bm]e
And you can't tell your mo[A]m
Cause it's tough [D]about [G]guys
So you start telling lies
[D]And your dad ain't around
So you're getting in [Em]fights
Cause you're just [G]mad
I guess I just [D]needed some [Em]help[D][G]
I always had to do it myself
[Bm]I gu[D]ess [G]I never really
said how [Bm]I felt[D][A][D][G]
[D]White picket fence [Em]around my yard
[G]Two brand new cars in the garage
[Bm]My father wo[A]rked so goddamn [D]hard
[G]May God bless the USA
[D]But now I get [Em]why my dad s[G]creams
Cause I'm as angry as can be
[Bm]I look like [A]him, he looks like me
[G]I guess we're both living
in [D]American [Em]dream
[G]You![D][Em][G][D][Em]
[G][Bm][A][D][G]
you
