[Intro] Am Abdim Am Abdim C Abdim Am Abdim E7 [Verse 1]
Am                      G
I don't know what I was thinking

C                Dm
Leaving my child behind

     F           Abdim                Am    G
Now, I suffer the curse and now, I am blind

Am                   G         A7
With all this anger, guilt and sadness

A        Dbdim     Dm
Coming to haunt me forever

F                    Abdim                      Am   G
I can't wait for the cliff at the end of the river

Am                      G
Is this revenge I am seeking

C                  Dm
Or seeking someone to avenge me?

     F            Abdim                Am   G
Stuck in my own paradox, I wanna set myself free

Am                  G     A7
Maybe, I should chase and find

  A           Dbdim  Dm
Before they'll try to stop it

F                   Abdim                Am    G
It won't be long before I'll become a puppet
[Chorus]
     Am      G
It's been so long

C               Dbdim
Since I seen my son

             Dm
Lost to this monster

       Abdim         Am      G
To the man behind the slaughter

 Am               G
Since you've been gone

C                             Dbdim
I've been singing this stupid song

            Dm
So, I could ponder

      Abdim            Am
The sanity of your mother
[Interlude] Am G C E7 Am G C E7 [Verse 2]
Am                      G
I wish I lived in the present

C                Dm
With the gift of my past mistakes

     F           Abdim                Am    G
But the future keeps luring in like a pack of snakes

Am                   G         A7    A        Dbdim     Dm
Your sweet little eyes, your little smile is all I remember

F                    Abdim           Am   G
Those fuzzy memories mess with my temper

Am                      G        C                Dm
Justification is killing me but killing isn't justified

F           Abdim                Am    G
What happened to my son? I'm terrified

Am                   G         A7    A        Dbdim     Dm
It lingers in my mind and the thought keeps on getting on bigger

F                    Abdim           Am   G
I'm sorry, my sweet baby, I wish I'd been there
[Chorus]
     Am      G
It's been so long

C               Dbdim
Since I seen my son

             Dm
Lost to this monster

       Abdim         Am
To the man behind the slaughter

 Am               G
Since you've been gone

C                             Dbdim
I've been singing this stupid song

            Dm
So, I could ponder

      Abdim            Am     G
The sanity of your mother
