   Dsus2 (xx0230@1)                             F#m (244222@1)      D (xx0232@1)         EWe (022100@1)are the daughters and the sons, and here's the line that's missing.

          E (022100@1)      Dsus2 (xx0230@1)      E (022100@1)              BmWe (x24432@1)pencil in, we cancel out; we crave the corner suite.
   A (x02220@1)       E (022100@1)     Dsus2 (xx0230@1)           E (022100@1)                 AWe (x02220@1)kiss your ass, we make you hold; we doctor the receipt.
