That's The Way I've Always Heard It Should Be - from Carly's debut album 1971

Bm G
My father sits at night with no lights on
Bm G
His cigarette glows in the dark
Dm7
The living room is still
Cmaj7 Am7 G
I walk by, no remark
Bm G
I tiptoe past the master bedroom where
Bm G
My mother reads her magazines
Bm G
I hear her call sweet dreams
Cmaj7 Am7 G
But I forgot how to dream

F Em
But you say it's time we moved in together
Dm7 Cmaj7
And raised a family of our own, you and me
F Em
Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be
D
You want to marry me, we'll marry

Bm G
My friends from college they're all married now
Bm G
They have their houses and their lawns
Dm7
They have their silent noons
Bm G
Tearful nights, angry dawns
Bm G
Their children hate them for the things they're not
Bm G
They hate themselves for what they are
Bm G
And yet they drink, they laugh
Cmaj7 Am7 G
Close the wound, hide the scars

F Em
But you say it's time we moved in together
Dm7 Cmaj7
And raised a family of our own, you and me
F Em
Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be
D
You want to marry me, we'll marry

Bm G
You say we can keep our love alive
Bm G
Babe, all I know is what I see
Dm7
The couples cling and claw
Cmaj7 Am7 G
And drown in love's debris
Bm G
You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds
Bm G
But soon you'll cage me on your shelf
Bm G
I'll never learn to be just me first
Cmaj7 Am7 G
By myself

F Em
Well O.K., it's time we moved in together
Dm7 Cmaj7
And raised a family of our own, you and me
F Em
Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be
D
You want to marry me, we'll marry
D
We'll marry
