Icarus Chords by Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real

[Verse]

  E
I run just to catch my tail
                     B7
I fly just to see my feet
      E
And I hide just to see who's lookin'
            B7          
And I smile every time 
           E
I brush my teeth
 
 
[Chorus]

               A
My mama said, "Everybody thinks
A
They're wiser than Icarus
E
Flirtin' with the big ol' sun
                B7
Go and find someone
              E      N.C.
Why don't you settle down, baby
N.C.
Yeah, you've had your fun"
 
 
[Verse]

   E
My mama said she wants grandbabies
                                                   
My daddy said he wouldn't 
                         B7
mind a few grandchildren too
    E
But I just lost my baby
                              
'Cause I'm too hard livin', 
  B7              E
I got too much to do
 
 
[Chorus]
               
My mama said, 
 A
"Everybody thinks
A
They're wiser than Icarus
E
Flirtin' with the big ol' sun
                B7
Go and find someone
              E      N.C.
Why don't you settle down, baby
N.C.
Yeah, you've had your fun"
 
 
[Bridge]

         A
Grab the bull by the horns, 

sheer them sheep
E
Milk those heifers, 

baby teat by teat
  A
A little hard work 
never did no wrong
    B7  N.C.
But who you gonna love 

when the evenin' comes?
 
 
[Verse]

      E
And I run just to catch my tail
                         B7
And I fly just to see my feet
      E
And I hide just to see who's lookin'
            B7          
And I smile every time 
          E
I brush my teeth
 
 
[Chorus]

               A
My mama said, "Everybody thinks
A
They're wiser than Icarus
E
Flirtin' with the big ol' sun
                B7
Go and find someone
              E      N.C.
Why don't you settle down, baby
N.C.
Yeah, you've had your fun"
 
 
[Out-Chorus]

A
Everybody thinks
A
They're wiser than Icarus
E
Flirtin' with the big ol' sun
                B7
Go and find someone
              E      N.C.
Why don't you settle down, baby
                          E
Yeah, you've had your fun
