Triple Dog Dare

        G 
I'm not tired yet 
C              G      F      G 
We still got a lot to figure out 
                  Am               C           G 
Like what was the end of the movie about, anyways? 
          C      G 
You're yawning on your couch 
 C            G        F    Em 
I wonder if I overstayed my welcome 
           Am              C               G 
Until you asked me if I'd like to take a walk 
      C             G 
We're going to the five and dime 
    C           G          F           Em 
The only open place at this time of night 
               Am                      F 
You're dancing in the aisle 'cause the radio 
   Am             F 
Is singing you a song you know 
        Am                    C                  G 
And the kid at the counter is gawking at your grace 
      C                      Am                   G 
I can tell what he's thinking by the look on his face 
     Am                 C                G 
It's not his fault, I'm sure I look thе same 
      C                 Am             G 
It's what you do, but it's not you I blame

     C            G 
Your mama read my palm 
      C               G        F      Em 
Shе wouldn't tell me what it was she saw 
            Am                 C                  G 
But after that, you weren't allowed to spend the night 
      C              G 
I'm staring at my hands 
     C      G         F          Em 
Red, ruddy skin, I don't understand 
               Am                F 
How did they betray me? What did I do? 
           Am             F 
I never touched you how I wanted to 
Am                    C                         G 
What can I say to your mom to let you come outside? 
     C                 Am                  G 
You know I'll be seeking if you run and hide 
        Am                      C                        G 
If the door were to open, would you walk through the frame? 
    C                    Am                 G 
If you're too afraid, it won't be you I blame

             G 
You passed a note in class 
      C    G               F   Em 
Told me to meet you at the overpass 
                 Am             C                  G 
Your lip was trembling when you said that we are cursed 
       C      G 
You're trying not to cry 
         C              G           F       Em 
When you tell me you're afraid that we may die 
           Am           C                 G 
I said "So what? Everybody's scared of that" 
              Am                F 
I want you to tell me that you miss me 
            Am                 F 
Want you to hold and hurt and kiss me 
        Am            C                      G   G/F# 
I wanna run away and live on your family's boat 
        C                        Am                 G 
It's a triple dog dare, you're a chicken if you don't 
       Am                  C                            G 
I can fish for our food and you know how to start a flame 
       C                         Am                       G 
If you don't get out now, you'll only have yourself to blame

Final 

             Am           C 
They put our faces on the milk jugs 
          Am               G 
Missing children 'til they gave up 
              Am                      C 
Your mama was right, and through the grief 
                 Am          G 
Can't fight the feeling of relief 
         Am                 C 
Nothing worse could happen now 
         Em                 G 
Nothing worse could happen now 
         Am          C 
Nothing worse could happen now
