Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
|| Bbm | Ab | Gb Bbm | Gb F ||


Verse 1:
Db                  Ab
I dunno what I was thinking,
Bbm                Ab
Leaving my child behind,
   Bbm            Ab             Bbm
Now I suffer the curse and now I am blind

     Ab              Bbm
With all this anger, guilt and sadness,
Ebm                  Gb
Coming to haunt me forever,
                      F                      Bbm
I can't wait for the cliff at the end of the river,
Bbm                  Ab
Is this revenge I am seeking,
   Bbm                 Ab
Or seeking someone to avange me
      Bbm           Ab                Db
Stuck in my own paradox I wanna set myself free

   Ab          Bbm
Maybe I should chase and find
  Ebm                  Gb
before they'll try to stop it
    Bbm            Ab                 Bbm
It won't be long before I'll become a puppet


Chorus:
     Bbm     Ab
It's been so long,
        Bbm               Bb
Since I last have seen my son
             Gb
lost to this monster
       F               Bbm
to the man behind the slaughter

      Bbm         Ab
Since you've been gone
     Bbm                      Bb
I've been singing this stupid song
           Gb
So I could ponder
     F             Bbm
The sanity of your mother


Instrumental:
|| Bbm Ab | Db F ||  x4


Verse 2:
Db                    Ab
I wish I lived in the present
         Bbm                Ab
With the gift of my past mistakes
        Bbm           Ab              Bbm
But the future keeps luring in like a pack of snakes

                  Ab                Bbm
Your sweet little eyes, your little smile,
  Ebm     Gb
is all I remember
                  F               Bbm
Those fuzzy memories mess with my temper

Bbm              Ab
 Justification is killing me
    Bbm                 F
But killing isn't justified
     Bbm            Ab            Db
What happened to my son, I'm terrified

   Ab            Bbm                   F                 Gb
It lingers in my mind and the thought keeps on getting bigger,
    Bbm            Ab                 Bbm
I'm sorry my sweet baby, I wish I've been there.


Chorus:
     Bbm     Ab
It's been so long,
        Bbm               Bb
Since I last have seen my son
             Gb
lost to this monster
       F                Bbm
to the man behind the slaughter

      Bbm          Ab
Since you've been gone
          Bbm                 Bb
I've been singing this stupid song
           Gb
So I could ponder
     F             Bbm
The sanity of your mother.
