Verses:

Em (022000@1)             C (x32010@1)  
 Well the key to my survival
    D (xx0232@1)           Bsus4Was (x24452@1)never in much doubt
    Em (022000@1)             DThe (xx0232@1)question was how I could keep sane
Bm (x24432@1)              CTrying (x32010@1)to find a way out

Em (022000@1)               C (x32010@1)Things were never easy for me
         D (xx0232@1)              Bsus4Peace (x24452@1)of mind was hard to find
      D (xx0232@1)                  AAnd (x02220@1)I needed a place where I could hide
C (x32010@1)                    GSomewhere (320003@1)I could call mine

Em (022000@1)           CI (x32010@1)didn't think much about it
       D (xx0232@1)                       Bsus4Til (x24452@1)it started happening all the time
Em (022000@1)                       DSoon (xx0232@1)I was living with the fear everyday
   Bm (x24432@1)                   COf (x32010@1)what might happen that night

Em (022000@1)                CI (x32010@1)couldn't stand to hear the
             DCrying (xx0232@1)of my mother
               Bsus4And (x24452@1)I remember when

D (xx0232@1)   
I swore that, that would be the
            A (x02220@1)         
Last they'd see of me
      C (x32010@1)             GAnd (320003@1)I never went home again

Bridge:

D (xx0232@1)                     D/E (000232@1)They say the time is a healer
           D (xx0232@1)                D/EAnd (000232@1)now my wounds are not the same
D (xx0232@1)                      D/E (000232@1)I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
  D (xx0232@1)                   D/EI (000232@1)had to hear what he'd say
C/G (3x555x@1)                G (320003@1)He sat me down to talk to me
D/A (x00232@1)                           C/A
 He looked me straight in the eyes



Chorus:

He said:
D/G (300232@1)    D/C (x30232@1)         D/Bm         D/C (x30232@1)  You're no son, you're no son of mine

G (320003@1)    D/G (300232@1)     C/G (3x555x@1)  You walked out, you left us behind
G (320003@1)            D/G (300232@1)    C/G (3x555x@1)      D/G (300232@1)

                   DBut (xx0232@1)where should I go,
    CAnd (x32010@1)what should I do
Em7                    C (x32010@1)          
You're no son, you're no son of mine
D (xx0232@1)                           C (x32010@1)         Em (022000@1)  
 But I came here for help, oh I came here for you

D (xx0232@1)                 Bsus4I (x24452@1)thought about him everyday
Em (022000@1)                   DWhat (xx0232@1)would I do, if we passed on the street
B (x2444x@1)                  CWould (x32010@1)I keep running away

Em (022000@1)                  C (x32010@1)In and out of hiding places
D (xx0232@1)                       Bsus4Soon (x24452@1)I'd have to face the facts
     D (xx0232@1)                  AWe'd (x02220@1)have to sit down and talk it over
    C (x32010@1)                   GAnd (320003@1)that would mean going back
