[Verse 1]
    C        G         D       G
And she lays down on the bedroom floor

    C              G  
The chemicals that make her laugh

D                        D     G
Don't seem to be working anymore

    C         G            D         G  
She tries her best, but it hurts her chest

    C               G
And even though her son is gone

      D                        D        G
She'd like to love her child nevertheless
[Verse 2]
   C       G            D         G  
My hair is brown, she's scared to touch

    C                 G
And she just wants to feel something

    D                           D          G
And I don't think that's asking for too much

    C            D                 
And when I go to sleep 

G                       C
It's when she begins to weep
[Chorus]
      D               G            C
She's appalled by not loving me at all

C           G                  D
She wears a frown and dressing gown

     D        G
When she lays down
[Verse 3]
        C     G                D       G
Well we got a plane, to see my dad again

C                         G
She prayed that we'd fall from the sky

D               D       G
Simply to alleviate the pain

C        G
Over the water, hmm

D        G
Over terrain

    C              G                  D
The engines all go bust, we'd turn to dust

                   D       G
And I've no reason to complain, yeah

C                            D
And in the end, she chose cocaine

G                       C
But it couldn't fix her brain
[Chorus]
      D                       G            C
She's appalled oh she doesn't love me at all

C           G                  D
She wears a frown and dressing gown

     D        G
When she lays down
That was it
