Two Way Monologue Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Mum
All the other options that you had
in mind starve [Em]me
'Cause I'm optionless and
turkey-free [G]and blind

[Verse 2]
[G]Pa
Won't you listen and I'll
let you in on this
Blind [Em]me!
As you listen I'll reduce advice to [Am]dust
Oh [D]no!
I shouldn't have [Am]to spell [C]my name

[Interlude 1]
[D]

[Verse 3]
[G]Ma!
If it's worth the made up smiles,
the quiet fights
Oh [Em]mother!
It is hard not to look in the [G]mirror's eye
I have come to this while
you have come along
So it's al[Em]right if you change your
mind the other way [Am]around [D]again
I [Bm]shouldn't have to [Am]spell [D]my name

[Verse 4]
[D]
So start the [C]two way monologues
that speak your [G]mind
We're talking [Cm]two way monologues
with words that [G]rhyme
[Bm][Bb][A]

[Verse 5]
[G]We
can't reclaim the shirts we
threw away last twirl
[Em]Uncurl the note-in-pocket, personal personal
personal [G]bro[Am]chures [D]that dust
Machine-washed,
[Bm]that's that's how pape[Am]r rust[D]s

[Verse 6]
[G]Days you spend wanting some of
Michael Landon's [C]grace[Cm]
strike [Em]back, now they shape
your life as stony as his [Am]face
Oh [D]no! I [Bm]shouldn't have to spell
[Am]his [D]name
[Bm][D]

[Verse 7]
So start the [C]two way monologues
that speak your [G]mind
Start the [Cm]two way monologues
with words that [G]rhyme[Bm]
[G]Start the [C]two way monologues
that speak your [G]mind
We're talking [Cm]two way

[Interlude 2]
monologues
[Cm][G][Bm][Bb][A][Bbdim]

[Verse 8]
We were chasing [Bbdim]rabbits on t[C#dim]he hill[D]
And that [Adim]prairie-life was [Ebdim]was great,
but [D]never [G]real[Bm][G][Em]
'Cause we [D]never saw no [G]rabbits out [Bm]there,
[Em]ever, no, not [G]once
All we [D]did was put a [G]fire up and
[Em]watch it burn for [G]months
[C]And I miss the sound of [Am]stairs and walls
an[Em]d maladjusted do[A]ors
and too [C]little space for hold[Am]ing all t[Em]he soldiers and [D]the
