Madelyn,
              A augmentedA
I share your hate for this world we're in
         B#mB#m
but it makes me a better man.
            G+G
It's an excuse that you make.
D MajorD
Madelyn,
              A augmentedA
I know you want to let the bottles in.
               B#mB#m
I know you think that they're all your friends.
                G+G
They're lying straight to your face.
   E minorEm
And I know
     A augmentedA       G+G
about the devil in your bloodstream.
   E minorEm
And I know
     A augmentedA         G+G
that the ghosts still visit nightly.
E minorEm
And I know
      A augmentedA       G+G
it must get lonely by the Chesapeake.

D MajorD
Madelyn,
        A augmentedA
are you really afraid of death
        B#mB#m
or do you just say it if
            G+G
it's the right thing to say?
D MajorD
Madelyn,
               A augmentedA
I know you're safe where you lay your head,
           B#mB#m
but if you wanted to come back,
              G+G
I've got a place you could stay.
E minorEm
If I'm not
   A augmentedA
doing right
   G+G
by my family,
   E minorEm
then what's
  A augmentedA      G+G
the point of it anyway?
    F# minorF#m
    E minorEm
Of this anyway?
            D MajorD
I don't think there's a god.
              A augmentedA
I don't think that there's someone coming to save us
   B#mB#m                   G+G
and I don't think that's the worst news of the day.
            D MajorD
I don't think there's a god.
              A augmentedA
I don't think that there's someone coming to save me
   B#mB#m                   G+G
and I don't think that's the worst news of the day.
D MajorD
Madelyn,
        A augmentedA
I know how your cold scars turn purple.
        B#mB#m
I know how the Irish goodbyes feel.
          G+G
I know where you've been
  D MajorD
and Madelyn,
          A augmentedA
you and I got this East Coast blood between us.
   B#mB#m
It's bitter and vitriolic.
       G+G
I know how it ends.
    E minorEm    A augmentedA      G+G
If I'm not doing right by my family.
     E minorEm    A augmentedA    G(Hold)
well, I'm not doing right by family.
