lyrics

Am
Am C
Once upon a time my family cared
Am C
An unbreakable bond is what we shared
F C
But I drove them off with all I had
E7
And once I’m gone they’ll surely be glad
Am C
So yes, I’m leaving, I’m going forever
Am C
I thought I could run, I thought that I was clever
F C
But now look at me, chained up to this chair
E7
And they say life’s not fair , Life’s not fair, Well I got news for you

Am
You been brought before the court today
C
Cuz you done bad things and you gotta pay
F E7
You’re a killer, a liar, an arson, and a thief
Am
Tried to put you in a cell
C
But that didn’t help as far as I can tell
F E7
Ain’t no chance of you turning a new leaf
Am
Maybe your mother didn’t raise you right
C
Didn’t care when you got into fights
F E7
Maybe your daddy beat you every day
Am
For what you’ve done to honest men
C
They’ll take you away not to be seen again
F E7
For your crimes do you have anything to say?
F C
Well it’s ok cuz I’ve resigned
F G
To losing my goddamn mind
Am C
And I have stuck around, long enough and found
E7
That life’s a bitch , that life’s a bitch, and then they put you in the ground
