VERSE 1
G/B (143121@7)            -                     -
Unwanted, but breathing in the next room, sleeping
(D/F#)  Em7      -                     - 
 My  mother, she’s crying and my father’s been drinking
(D/F#)    G/B (143121@7)  -                     -
In our run-down apartment where the roof is still leaking
(D/F#)     Em7   -                     -
He’s cursing and cussing it’s just the whiskey talking

CHORUS

(Em7)       Cadd9 (x32030@1)      -     (Cadd9)   Em7       -
And I’ve got lots of memories like this one
(Em7)   Cadd9 (x32030@1)          -      (Cadd9)   Em7      -
Of empty days and nights spent tired and lonesome
(Em7)      A2/Dsus       -
When I think back… to all of it
   A2/Dsus    -          -             -                 -

In the image of my mother, says he’s a blessing

(Em7)   Cadd9 (x32030@1)          -      (   Cadd9)   Em7   -
Of picking sides and picking fights between them

When I think back… to all of it
   A2/Dsus    -          -            -            -

G/B (143121@7)              -               -
     Well, broken and beaten from the abuse and the cheating
(D/F#)   Em7       -               -
The addiction, and the lying and the promise of leaving
(D/F#)     G/B (143121@7)   -               -
While my old man was a bastard, I admired and loved him
