E
Now I have a nagging flaw I never saw it sneaking up

   B
It wrapped its dirty arms around me
Pockets full of blood
E
After I had seen the sight I hardly had a choice to fight

             B
A nail stuck out behind the van
And it hit me through my sweater and my shirt
E
And when I looked at Michael he heard "I need to be alone"

B                         
When he turned his head I soon corrected "need to be at home"

E
It took me all this time to get where I said I would never be

B
I hope it's not even out there

      E                          F#          G#m         F#   E
I hope eventually you'll see what you've been turning me into

                Eb
It's all for you
B [Verse 2]
             E
It feels like 37 years and I am nothing but a bank

            B
If we could build our credit score "Incredible," they'll surely say

E
But I can credit only one to focus all the fame

           B
It has the first and last even the middle of my very name

         E
I am the greatest man that never lived and now I never sleep
I never lost a fight but never knew I started one the same
                                 Eb
I never knew how capable I would become
[Bridge]
B                         E    B                             F#
I'm tired of talking to a wall when I could talk to someone else

         E                                         B       F#
It's got seven days without a word and you're with someone somewhere else
[Chorus]
 B                E     B
My daughter, she barely eats

   E       B
She barely sleeps

    E      F#
She barely speaks

B                E      B
My daughter, she barely eats

   E       B
She barely sleeps

   E      F#
She barely speaks

    E
 to me

    B
 to me

    E
 to me

    B
 to me
[Verse 3]
E
We spent the most of nights defending fights you fought in the past

B
But it was different now and I'm entirely too drunk to ask

E
It seems every day enjoying the sun and hoping it lasts

B
I have a funny gut and feeling doubtful you'll get it back
E
B
I have a funny gut and feeling doubtful you'll get it back
E [Chorus]
 B                E     B
My daughter, she barely eats

   E       B
She barely sleeps

    E      F#
She barely speaks

B                E      B
My daughter, she barely eats

   E       B
She barely sleeps

   E      F#
She barely speaks

    E
 to me

    B
 to me

    E
 to me

    B
 to me
