             Am                          G
We were like brothers, everybody said we looked the same

             C
You a little taller, and broader, and bolder. We were afraid of your

Am                                 G
mother, hell, she used to hit you so hard

         C                                      F                                         Am
And your dad took off when you were a baby, and you still hate me for my dad stuck around

           G
You pin me to the ground

C                                          F
Eight years old with a replica gun pushin' in my skull, saying you're gonna kill me

Am                          G
if I tell. Never did, and I never will

               C            F
That house was living hell.      Come on

              Am                      G
I remember my mother when she found a new man

         C
And your mother thought she found a partner,

                                      Am
A father for you, no wonder you can't stand me,

        G
I can't stand me, too

        C              F
I can't stand me, too

            Am                  G
Oh, your godmother repaired the anger in me

C                                       F                              Am
Spoke to me like I was an adult, didn't take sides and didn't turn me against my dad

         G                           F
Then she took those pills and now she's gone

F   G   Am C   Dm
See her in the night

       F  G   Am C  Dm
In the corner of my eye

      F   G   Am C   Dm    F
And I see her in the night

                    C                        G
Heard you glassed a boy back in the borders

                    Am                  F
Some naughty family boys are after you

                     C                        G
You pinned me to the wall and said my mother

             Am                     F
Stole your inheritance from you, oh yeah?

               C                 G
We ain't got a penny between us

                Am                   F
Holding up this tin that we live in

                     C                          G
You pinned me to the wall and smashed a bottle

                      F
Your eyes the door to hell and all within

Fadd9 C* G   G Am F
