[Intro]
Em C G D x2
 
[Verse 1]
Em C G D
Time is wasted on me but mom it will be all right
Em C G D
You've lost your faith in me but mom it will be all right
Em C G D
And the family will hold even though my brother's gone
Em C G D D
And the family will hold even though things turned out wrong
 
Em C G D
We wait for test results but mom, it will be alright
Em C G D
Spent out on expert consults but mom, it will be alright
Em C G D
And the family will hold even though we've lost the means
Em C G D
And the family will hold in this graceless, sad routine
C
Sad routine
 
[Chorus]
C Am D
I've always known that I am second born
C Am
It's like a hand-me-down in a house, we live in mourning
 
[Verse 2]
Em C G D
I will write a new song and I will sing it tonight
Em C G D
No one sings along but mom
C
It will be alright
 
[Chorus]
C Am D
I've always known that I am second born
C Am D
It's like a hand-me-down and I feel it when the threads are torn
C Am D
Leave it alone but I am a second born
C Am
I know what I've done, I don't need to be a firstborn son
Em
A firstborn son
 
[Interlude]
Em C G D
 
[Verse 3]
Em C G D
And I found me a girl and she's had a troubled life
Em C G D
And I will make a home and make a troubled girl my wife
Em C G D
And the family will hold and maybe we will have a son
Em C G D
And the family will hold and we'll say we've just begun
C
We've just begun
 
[Chorus]
C Am D
I've always known that I am second born
C Am D
It's like a hand-me-down in a house, we live in mourning
C Am D
Leave it alone but I am second born
C Am
I know what I've done, I don't need to be a firstborn son
 
[Outro]
Em C G D
Second born
Em C G D
Second born
