Intro:

C

Verse 1:
       C
I was six years old
                                            G
Running from the sound in my nightgown, screaming through the walls
                              Am
He was angry, she was trying, I could hear it all
F
TV up loud as it could go
      C
Just another night at home
                                              G
You were raising hell, can't forget the smell soaked into your clothes
                                   Am
100 proof that burnt through that cigarette smoke
        F
Always knew before you spoke

how the night was gonna go

Pre-Chorus:
          G              Am                F
Now you dive in, saying you're a different man


Chorus:

I still remember you
C
Blacked out, face down, asleep in your car
         G
And the violence, the sirens that rang in the dark
        Am                                               F
And the last straw, the worst of all, the breaking of my mother's heart
                                C
And now since December, you've shown up

Say I've grown up, you just want to see us
    G
You woke up sober, said you found Jesus
    Am                                                  F
You don't understand why I still hate the man that came back
                        C
But you can talk to God about that

Verse 2:
       C
It was nine years ago
                                         G
It was broken glass, it was getting bad, didn't wanna go
                                                 Am
But she couldn't stay just to see the day, she'd find you on the floor
             F
She couldn't do it anymore

Pre-Chorus:
        G                  Am          F
And you swear you'll never be that man again
    G                Am            F
But who you were, it made me who I am

Chorus:

I still remember you
C
Blacked out, face down, asleep in your car
         G
And the violence, the sirens that rang in the dark
        Am                                               F
And the last straw, the worst of all, the breaking of my mother's heart
                                C
And now since December, you've shown up

Say I've grown up, you just want to see us
    G
You woke up sober, said you found Jesus
    Am                                                  F
You don't understand why I still hate the man that came back
                        C
But you can talk to God about that

Outro:
                    G                               Am
You can talk to God about that, you can talk to God about that
      F
Yeah, you can talk, you can talk, you can talk to God about that
    C
The mother, the brother, the family you broke
        G
And the daughter who grew up trusting no one
        Am                                                  F
And the bruises on her skin, the holes that you left in the walls
                    C
You can talk to God about it all
  G
Oh-oh (you can talk to God about that)
  Am                                                       F
Oh-oh (you can talk to God about that, you can talk to God)
                    C
You can talk to God about it all
