D                                           Bm
Carry me up them stairs with my white socks on

And my pretty song
                      D
You like my blue nail polish, “What is all this?”
               Bm             Bm 
You said, “The mess upstairs, don't be scared”

A                                          G
Daddy dearest, you know how I like to take trips
                                           A
Pops, first stops at the K-Mart, buy me my peach lip gloss
                    E
Cigarettes and lollipops
                        E   F# 
For our trip across the USA

Bm                         D    G
We’re gonna party like it's 1949
                                      Bm
We’re in the Pontiac from July to July
                   D                  G
Gonna see it all before he says goodbye

Gonna party like it’s 1949

D                                          Bm
Carry me up the stairs with my white socks on

And my blonde hair long
                   D
You like my pin-up bodice, and the solace
                    Bm                   Bm
That comes with the midnight air, and my icy stare

A
It’s the clearest

When it’s me and him alone
G                                                A
He stops, he talks a-bout all the ways he used to lit up
                    E
Dinerettes and soda pops
                        E   F#
For our trip across the USA

Bm                         D     G

Bm                    D
Daddy likes Blackpool Pleasure Beach and road stops
G
Me, I like the Swiss Alps souvenir gift shops
Bm                   D
Late night, midnight radio show talks
G
Him and me, a big jailbreak

Bm                      D
Ponytail and lollipops, dinerettes and soda pops
G
New blue bathing suit, ruched tops and Cadillacs
Bm                     D
Blue Lake Carter docks, hopscotch, hot talk
G 
Alabama hard knocks, motel brass locks
