             C 
what could i tell them? 
C/G                    Am9                Bbmaj7 
would they criticize behind my back 
               C                          F 
maybe i should let them 
        C             Am7     D9                     Dm7/G  Gsus4 
oh if only then and only then they would understand 
             C     C/E    F               C/G   G7/B        C    C7/E F C/G  G7/B

theyd turn a full blooded city boy into a full blooded city man 
 
 
C/G                   Am9 
if they could face it i could take it 
Bbmaj7          C       F/C  C            F/C 
in their eyes i know id make it 
C/G           Am9                         Bbmaj7 
tiny minds of sacred cows just fake it 
        C             Am7     D9                     Dm7/G  Gsus4 
oh if only then and only then they would understand

      Bbm   
but i know the way they want me  
Eb7/Bb Abmaj7 
in the way they publicize 
Bbm                              Eb7/Bb Abmaj7 
if they could turn the focus off to the image in their eyes 
C/G            Gsus4/9    C/G            F 
maybe it would help them help them understand 
C/G            Gsus4/9    C/G            F 
maybe it would help them help them understand 
C/G            Gsus4/9    C/G            F 
maybe it would help them help them understand 
       C            F                 C/G          F    C        C7/E F C/G  G7/B
