[Intro]
D A
La da da da da da
Bm F#m
La da da da da da
Bm F#m Bm A
La da da, la da da, la da da, la da da

[Verse 1]
(D) A
I was born old
Bm F#m
I grew up but I got younger
Bm F#m
I was torn, and cold
Bm A
Now I�m fine but there�s this hunger
G A
And a thirst for the days
D F#m
Before I went and razed it all
G A D
To the ground

[Verse 2]
Got a job, found God
I did everything they told me
Spoiled the child, spared the rod
And found someone new to hold me
Though the love�s not as real
As what I used to feel when it
All went wrong

[Chorus]
D A
La da da da da da,
Bm F#m
La da da da da da
G D A D
La da da da da da, La da da da

[Verse 3]
She was young, not scared - she was everything I wanted
I was dumb, unprepared - had no idea that I was haunted
By the ghosts of a life the night I hid the knives
And it all went wrong

[Verse 4]
It�s an old wound, but it opened in a new way
In a rest room in a rest stop on the thruway
She calls up her parents
And admits with embarrassment
Bm
She was wrong

[Bridge]
G A
Speaking of your mother
Bm A7
This is how it goes:
G A
When the world gets you down
Bm
I suppose
Gm A7 Bm
You can fly away somewhere else
G A
Of your own volition
Bm A7
Of your own accord
G A
When you�re sad, when you�re angry
Bm
When you�re bored,
Gm A7 Bm
You�ve got to do what�s best for yourself
G A D Bm
Ooo ooo ooooo ooo oo oo oo oo oo oo
G A
La da da da dum

[Verse 5]
I awoke; you were gone
There was nothing left to hold onto
I was blind, I was wrong
But I could find you if I want to
So I fly to the coast where
The boys you love most
Sing into your eyes

[Verse 6]
I was lost, now I�m found
I can see, but miss the blindness
Here�s my cross; pound
It�s your mouth, your kiss, your kindness
My stigmata�s the regret for how
I could have let it all
Go so wrong

[Bridge 2]
G A
I�m going back to the place
D A
Where they laughed in my face
G A
When it all went
D Bm
All went
G A Bm
All went wrong
G A
Yes it all went -
D Bm
Isn�t this what you wanted, darling?
G A
All went...

[Chorus]
