[Verse 1]
D G D
My mother said things are fine
G D A
and turned the other way
D G D
My troubles she said go way back
G D A
far before your day
D G D
But things are alright, she said it's alright
G D A
you could see it in her face
D G D
Her days of praise had gone astray
G D A
moved on to another place

[Verse 2]
D G D
My father threw up his arms
G D A
in a cold aggressive rage
D G D
I've been fighting my conscience years now
G D A
every single day
D G D
We live alone now, we live alone now
G D A
No one is to blame
D G D
His days away go unexplained
G D A
Things will never be the same
