Ab2Ab2  Abmaj7/DbDb

Ab2Ab2                    Abmaj/DbDb
Maybe I've lost it at last
Ab2Ab2                  Abmaj7/DbDb
Maybe my last lucid moment has passed
   Bbm7                       Eb7sus
I'm dancing with death, I suppose
    Db9Db9/FF              Eb9Eb9/GG
But really, who knows?

Ab2Ab2                    Abmaj7/DbDb
Could be I'm crazy to go
     Fm7Fm7
They say you should stay
          BbmBbm      AbAb/BbBb  Ab5Ab5/BbBb  BbmBbm
With the devil you know
          Fb6Fb6          FbFb+   Fbmaj7
But when life needs a change
         Fb6Fb6       Cb2Cb2  Cbsus Cb2Cb2
And the one devil won't
    Bbm7                 Eb7sus Db2Db2
You fly to the devil you don't
Eb7sus Db9Db9/FF Eb9Eb9/GG

AbAb         Abmaj7      Db9Db9  DbDb
Maybe I'm tired of the game
   AbAb          Abmaj7      Db9Db9           DbDb
Of coming up short of the rules, of the shame
    Bbm7                     EbEb
And maybe you feel that way too
   Db9Db9/FF         Eb9Eb9/GG
I see me in you

  AbAb            EbEb        Db9Db9  Eb9Eb9
AA girl full of anger and hope
  FmFm           Fm9Fm9   FmFm      BbmBbm       Bbm9  Ab5Ab5/BbBb  BbmBbm
AA girl with a mother who just couldn't cope
    Bbm7/FbFb     Bbm9/FbFb             Bbm7/FbFb      Cb9Cb9
AA girl who felt caught and thought no one could see
    Bbm7      Eb7sus          AbAb Bbm7 AbAb/CC
But maybe one day she'll be free
        Eb7Eb7                  Db9Db9
It's so lovely that you're sharing
    Eb7Eb7              Db9Db9
No, really, I'm all ears
    Eb7Eb7                Db9Db9        AbAb
But where has all this caring been
             EbEb/GG  Db9Db9/FF
For sixteen years?
    Eb7Eb7                 Db9Db9
For all those years I'd prayed that
      Eb7Eb7         Db9Db9/FF
You'd go away for good
Absus            AbAb           AbAb          AbAb/GG
Half the time afraid that you really would
       Absus/GbGb              AbAb/GbGb
When I thought you might be dying
            Absus/FF        Fm7Fm7
I cried for all we'd never be
    Fbmaj13                   Fb6Fb6
But there'll be no more crying
        Bbm7
Not for me

AbAb/CC            Db9Db9           Ab9Ab9/EbEb
Things will get better you'll see
         Bbm7  AbAb/CC
(Not for me)
       Db9Db9  Ab9Ab9/EbEb
You'll see
         Bbm7  AbAb/CC
(Not for me)
       Db9Db9
You'll see (Not for me)
       Ab9Ab9/EbEb
You'll see (Not for me)
       Db9Db9/FF  Eb9Eb9/GG
You'll see...

AbAb       Abmaj9     Db9Db9 DbDb
Maybe we can't be okay
    Fm7Fm7                          FbFb     Fbmaj7  Fb6Fb6/EbEb
But maybe we're tough and we'll try anyway
       FbFb/EbEb            Fbmaj7/EbEb  Fb6Fb6/EbEb
We'll live with what's real
     Db9Db9
Let go of what's past
    Bbm7                   Eb7sus  Db9Db9/FF
And maybe I'll see you at last

Eb7sus Db9Db9/FF  x2

        Eb7sus  Db9Db9/FF      Db9Db9
I don't need a life that's normal
       Eb7sus  Db9Db9/FF  Db9Db9
That's way too far a-way
    Absus              AbAb          Absus/GG  AbAb/GG
But something next to normal would be okay
      Absus/GbGb           AbAb/GbGb
Yeah, something next to normal
           Fm7Fm7       DbDb/FF    Fm7Fm7
That's the thing I'd like to try
Fbmaj13                       Eb7sus Db9Db9/FF
Close enough to normal to get by
          Eb7sus Db9Db9/FF
We'll get by
          Eb7sus Db9Db9/FF
We'll get by
