(Intro.)

(Verse)
We took a ride (D) up a golden elevator
They both cried (G) as they signed a stack of papers
Mom got the car, (D) Dad got the truck 
I got a (D)Happy Meal and a baseball
I didn’t get (G)it ’til we got home
And all his (G)stuff was in a U-Haul

(Pre-Chorus)
He (A)pushed me for a while in the swing
Kissed my (G)head and said, “See you next week”

(Chorus)
(D) There’s a lot I don’t remember, but that cryin’ down the hall
(G) Had a way of makin’ me wonder maybe it was all my fault
(D) I got stuck in the middle of weekends and holidays
(G) And my suitcase was too little to carry all that weight
I (Em)might not have under-(D/F#)stood it all (G)
But, not everythin’ (Bm)goes (A/C#)over your head
(G) Even when you’re three feet tall (D) / / / |(D) / /

(Verse)
And she kept the (D)house, he found a two-bedroom apartment
I found (G)out, you can’t roll hard-wheel ‘cross the carpet
They were (D)sad, but, we got through
Dropped me (D)off with, “I love you’s”
It was, “Ask your (G)dad” and “Mind your mother”
I just (G)wish that they could have loved each other

(Chorus)
(D) There’s a lot I don’t remember, but that cryin’ down the hall
(G) Had a way of makin’ me wonder maybe it was all my fault
(D) I got stuck in the middle of weekends and holidays
(G) And my suitcase was too little to carry all that weight
I (Em)might not have under-(D/F#)stood it all (G)
But, not everythin’ (Bm)goes (A/C#)over your head
(G) Even when you’re three feet tall (D)
(D) Even when you’re three feet tall, (G) mm, mm

(Break)
I was (A)too young to get what they (G)meant when they said, “Fine”
But now I’m (A)old enough to know how hard it (G)is to fake a smile

(Chorus)
(D) There’s a lot I don’t remember, but that cryin’ down the hall
(G) Had a way of makin’ me wonder maybe it was all my fault
(D) And I got stuck in the middle of weekends and holidays
(G) And my suitcase was too little to carry all that weight
I (D)might not have under-(D/F#)stood it all (G)
Yeah I (D)might not have under-(D/F#)stood it all (G)
But, not everythin’ (Bm)goes (A/C#)over your head
(G) Even when you’re three feet tall, (D) yeah
Even when you’re three feet tall (G) / / / |(G) / - - - - -
