C chordC        G chordG         D chordD       G chordG
And she lays down on the bedroom floor
C chordC G chordG
The chemicals that make her laugh
D chordD D chordD G chordG
Don't seem to be working anymore
C chordC G chordG D chordD G chordG
She tries her best, but it hurts her chest
C chordC G chordG
And even though her son is gone
D chordD D chordD G chordG
She'd like to love her child nevertheless



C chordC G chordG D chordD G chordG
My hair is brown, she's scared to touch
C chordC G chordG
And she just wants to feel something
D chordD D chordD G chordG
And I don't think that's asking for too much
C chordC D chordD
And when I go to sleep
G chordG C chordC
It's when she begins to weep



D chordD G chordG C chordC
She's appalled by not loving me at all
C chordC G chordG D chordD
She wears a frown and dressing gown
D chordD G chordG
When she lays down



C chordC G chordG D chordD G chordG
Well we got a plane, to see my dad again
C chordC G chordG
She prayed that we'd fall from the sky
D chordD D chordD G chordG
Simply to alleviate the pain
C chordC G chordG
Over the water, hmm
D chordD G chordG
Over terrain
C chordC G chordG D chordD
The engines all go bust, we'd turn to dust
D chordD G chordG
And I've no reason to complain, yeah
C chordC D chordD
And in the end, she chose cocaine
G chordG C chordC
But it couldn't fix her brain



D chordD G chordG C chordC
She's appalled oh she doesn't love me at all
C chordC G chordG D chordD
She wears a frown and dressing gown
D chordD G chordG
When she lays down
