[VERSE]
Em Bm C D A His mother came up with such a clever way to save the day with a little white lie Em Bm C D A He thinks he missed the point back then, but now he's grown to understand it, in a way Em Bm C D Father said "I'm sorry" only once, as I remember Em Bm C D The words were not meant to hurt, only destroy you, my stupid son Am Bm C D One person can make a difference, sometimes Am Bm C D Just turn his head when the kid is still and has a weak neck
N.C.
Smiled at his funeral, "happy you're dead."
Em Bm C D A All his solutions, it seemed, were only problems in disguise Em Bm C D A Glueing on his drinkin' face, got ready to erase another day
[CHORUS]
Gm Eb Gm Eb Bb Mother was yet confident, although they had it tight, taught her son Cm D At the end of every tunnel's a little light Gm Eb Gm Eb It wasn't a lie, it was her hope, that everything would be fine one day Bb Cm D He can fulfill his every dream, I'm happy as long as he's not
[KEY CHANGE]
Eb F G D I hate it and fear can't face it Eb F G D The child is not right, he's my greatest shame Eb F G D Go out, create thunder, and stand right under F G A That old apple tree where dead snakes let him feed on those Bbm Gb Ab Db Bbm Lost hopes, all those kind words could hurt him even more, now Gb Ab Db Db/C Somehow, lost one more way back home
[VERSE]
Em Bm C D A Out on the lake, he rows towards a monster he should've been running away from, years ago Em Bm C D A The past had made him blind to the way he'd turned the pain into a way of life
[CHORUS]
Gm Eb Gm Eb Followed his father, tucked him in, Caleb knows the trade Bb Cm D Gm He's the portrait of a man his mother drew to hate forever Eb Gm Eb She was a beast, a deadly saint, wrong in many ways Bb Cm D Wanted to keep up the charade, until the end waltzing together

[BRIDGE]
Em C Over the hills, under the sea, fighting the will, whole Universe G Am B Why does a man driving a hearse live in fear, Gift and a Curse F#m D Taking 'em out, taking 'em all, shooting the wall, over and out A Bm C# F#m When nothing moves, all's well, a decision he can find a way to live with D ...And dried up flowers are so beautiful A Bm C# And it applies to all things living, and dead Em Bm C D Em Bm C D A For that I serve my time... in my suite in Hell
