D D G Bm It doesn't pay to try, D All the smart boys know why, D G Bm It doesn't mean I didn't try, D I just never know why. D G Bm Feel so cold and all alone, D Cause baby, you're not at home. D G Bm And when I'm home D Big deal, I'm still alone. Feel so restless, I am , Beat my head against a pole Try to knock some sense, down in my bones. And even though they don't show, The scars aren't so old And when they go, They let you know G A D You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory G A D Don't try, don't try D G Bm You're just a bastard kid, D And you got no name D G Bm Cause you're living with me, D We're one and the same And even though they dont show, They scars aren't so old And when they go, They let you know You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory Don't try, don't try You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory Don't try, don't try
