C                       Am
 She only cares for the dead

C                          Am                       C
 Her only thoughts are the ghosts living inside her head

C                         Am      C                  Am
 Oh, but we can’t blame her though. She’s mentally unwell

C                        Am           C                              Am
 And we have to save her soul, ‘cause we all know she’ll sabotage herself

   G                               D
Oh namesake, will you ever care for me?

    C                                  D                    Am
You never try to socialize, if they’re not blood, they’re diseased

   G
Oh namesake, why do you forsake me?

    G*                                                   D*
And all your sons and daughters and grandchildren are deceased

                           Am
As far as your heart is concerned

G                             D                     Am
Cherish who is here while you are, but will you ever learn?

C                   Am
 He only wants to be loved

C                       Am                              C
 To feel appreciated before all of his loved ones are above

C                      Am   C                                 Am
 Oh, but he’s so selfish and, they say they’re giving all they can

C                             Am           C                                      Am*
 And he’ll have to save his own soul, even though he’s sure that one day, his willpower will not hold

    G                                D
Oh, bloodline, will you ever care for me?

  C                                  D                    Am
I only want to socialize, if they’re not blood, they’re diseased

   G
Oh bloodline, how LONG will you forsake me?

G*                                                      D*
And all your other family consists of liars, beggars and thieves

                                 Am
As far as your conscience is concerned

   G                                      D                  Am
CheRISH the time you’re here while you are, but will you ever learn?

    G                          D                             Am
I’m waiting to find out who you are beneath this generational curse
