[Intro]
E Amaj7 E Amaj7
E
[Verse 1]
E A Shakespeare in study hall B Percocet and some Adderall A Doctor called it a wonder drug E Ripped a page from the Book of Job A I remember you innocent B Now all you are is bones and skin A With your father's temperament E Still paying off that original sin C#m B And it never gets easier
[Chorus]
A Remember, we had it all planned out C#m B A fenced-in yard, a job, and some kids A How dare you leave me high and dry now C#m B Thinking somehow it was something I did A C#m It's a monster, I know it, its fangs started showing B Took more than I ever could give A E Amaj7 E Why couldn't love be the wonder drug
[Verse 2]
E A It's the straw and the camel's back B I'm so angry and I feel bad A Was it God or your parents, or the small town that raised you? E I held your face in my hands C#m B But I still couldn't break through
[Chorus]
A Remember, we had it all planned out C#m B A fenced-in yard, a job, and some kids A How dare you leave me high and dry now C#m B Thinking somehow it was something I did A C#m It's a monster, I know it, its fangs started showing B Grabs hold with the hand that it gives A E Why couldn't love be the wonder drug?
[Bridge]
C#m B Why couldn't you run to love? A B E Why couldn't you run to love?
[Verse 3]
E A I wasn't paying attention when B The roof was steady, the walls came in A Blue-collar life and all its weight E I was right there and I was too late
[Outro]
A I was too late E I was too late A Too late
