[Verse 1]
C
 I forget how the West was won
G
 I forget if this was ever fun
Am                          
 I just learned these people 
      F
 Only raise you to cage you
C                                       
 Sarahs and Hannahs in their Sunday best
G
 Clutching their pearls, 

 sighing "what a mess"
Am                              
 I just learned these people try 
     F
 And save you 'cause they hate you
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 C          F                  C     
 Too high a horse for a simple girl 
          G
 To rise above it
 C                F                C
 They slammed the door on my whole world
                 G
 The one thing I wanted
 
 
[Chorus]
     C
 And I'm running with my dress unbuttoned
F
 Screaming, "But Daddy, I love him
 G
 I'm having his baby
        F
 No I'm not but you should see your faces"
 C
 I'm telling him to floor it through the fences
F
 No, I'm not coming to my senses
 G                               F
 I know he's crazy, but he's the one I want
 
 
[Verse 2]
C
 Dutiful daughter, all my plans were laid
G
 Tendrils tucked into a woven braid
Am
 Growing up precocious sometimes means
F
 Not growing up at all
C
 He was chaos, he was revelry
G
 Bedroom eyes like a remedy
Am                                   
 Soon enough, the elders had convened 
F
 down at the city hall
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C                F      
 "Stay away from her," 
          C               G
  the saboteurs protested too much
C               F              C
 Lord knows the words we never heard
                           G
 Just screeching tires and true love
 
 
[Chorus]
     C
 And I'm running with my dress unbuttoned
F
 Screaming, "But Daddy, I love him
 G
 I'm having his baby
        F
 No I'm not but you should see your faces"
 C
 I'm telling him to floor it through the fences
F
 No, I'm not coming to my senses
 G                               F
 I know he's crazy, but he's the one I want
 
 
[Bridge]
C                        G
 I'll tell you something right now
                          Am
 I'd rather burn my whole life down
                         F
 Than listen to one more second of 

 All this bitching and moaning
 C                                G
 I'll tell you something about my good name
                    Am
 It's mine alone to disgrace
                            F
 I don't cater to all these vipers 

 Dressed in empath's clothing
 Am                    F
 God save the most judgemental creeps
                          G
 Who say they want what's best for me
                            
 Sanctimoniously performing 
                        Am
 Soliloquies I'll never see
                 F
 Thinking it can change the beat
                     G
 Of my heart when he touches me 

 And counteract the chemistry
              C     G
 And undo the destiny
                 Am
 You ain't gotta pray for me
         F
 He's my wild boy and I'm his wild joy
C G                    Am
    If all you want is grey for me
                F
 Then it's just white noise, 

 This is my choice
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C
 There's a lot of people in town that I
G
 Bestow upon my fakest smiles
Am                              
 Scandal does funny things to pry 
            F
 But brings lovers closer
C
 We came back when the heat died down
G
 Went to my parents and they came around
Am
 All the wine moms are still holding out
     F
 But f*ck 'em, it's over
 
 
[Chorus]
     C
 And I'm dancing in my dress in the sun
F
 And even my daddy just loves him
 G
 I'm his lady
     F
 And oh my god you should see your faces
 C
 Time, doesn't it give some perspective?
F
 I know you can't come to the wedding
 G                               F
 I know he's crazy, but he's the one I want
 
 
[Outro]
C                        G
 I'll tell you something right now
                 Am
 You ain't gotta pray for me
         F
 He's my wild boy, and I'm his wild joy
  C                          G
 (He was chaos, he was revelry)
                    Am
 If all you want is grey for me
              F
 Thatt's just white noise, it's my choice
C G                                Am
    Screaming, "But Daddy, I love him
                F
 I'm having his baby
        C       G                   Am
 No I'm not but you should see your faces"
     F
 But oh my god you should see your faces
C  G  Am  F
