[G] [F] [C]
What you're looking for is never what you find *1
[G] [F] [C]
Nothing ever seems to turn out right *1
[Am] [G]
Still running around still searching
[F] [C]
all these long indifferent streets
[Am] [G]
For your lover or some cover
[F] [C]
to protect you from the heat
[G]
That you feel inside *2
[F] [G] [C]
inflamed since you learned to cry
[G] [F] [C]
Ever since you learned to walk you ran away *1
[G] [F] [C]
kept running till you couldn't feel your legs *1
[Am] [G]
Now you stumble round this drunken town
[F] [C]
pawn shops and titty bars
[Am] [G]
telling tales of just how far you got
[F] [C]
But they'll all know who you are
[G]
Yeah you're not so great *2
[F] [G] [C]
You're just early out of the gate
[G] [F] [C]
there's a portrait of your mom when she was young *1
[G] [F] [C]
Her face was shining brightly as the sun *1
[Am] [G]
The son who got away from her
[F] [C]
but came back home again
[Am] [G]
to find a women wrapped
[F] [C]
with all this love she couldn't give
[G]
But you know she did *2
[F] [G] [C]
You just couldn't feel it then
[G] [F] [C]
Found a birthday card from this lady I used to know *1
[G] [F] [C]
It said boy you're really starting to get old *1
[Am] [G]
She's the mother of my mother
[F] [C]
I knew just what she meant
[Am] [G]
She'd been through it before
[F] [C]
she'd known of all of this resentment
[G]
becomes regret *2
[F] [G] [C]
I just hadn't gotten there yet *1
[Am] [G] [F][C]
Nothing ever seems to turn out right
[Am] [G] [F][C]
No never, never seems to turn out right
[G]
So I leave it at this *2
[F][G] [C]
my deepest regret
