    You never need forgiveness     Left home at seventeen
  C              G/B          Am                 D
    Raised up on hate    To a life that's second rate
  F                                            G
    I've seen that look before     Behind some closing door

    Too much a child      Confident and wild
  F                                F                  G
    Nobody taught you how to live    What to keep and what to give
