VERSE 1
(D) D A
I was born old
Bm F#m
I grew up but I got younger
Bm F#m
I was torn, and cold
Bm A
Now I’m fine but there’s this hunger
G A
And a thirst for the days
D E
Before I went and razed it all
G A D
To the ground
VERSE 2
(D) D A
Got a job, found God
Bm F#m
I did everything they told me
Bm F#m
Spoiled the child, spared the rod
Bm A
And found someone new to hold me
G A
Though the love’s not as real
D E
As what I used to feel when it
G A D
All went wrong
INSTRUMENTAL
D A
La da da da dum ba da,

G D A D
Ba da da, Ba da ya, Ba da aa da
VERSE 3
(D) D A
She was young, not scared
Bm F#m
She was everything I wanted
Bm F#m
I was dumb, unprepared
Bm A
Had no idea that I was haunted
G A D E
By the ghosts of a life the night I hid the knives
G A D
And it all went wrong
VERSE 4
(D) D A Bm F#m
It’s an old wound, but it opened in a new way
Bm F#m Bm A
In a rest room in a rest stop on the thruway
G A
So she calls up her parents
D E
And admits with embarrassment
G A Bm
She was wrong
BRIDGE
G A
Speaking of your mother
D B7
This is how it goes:
Em A
When the world gets you down
Bm
I suppose
B7 G
You can fly away somewhere else
(G) A
Of your own volition
D B7
Of your own accord
Em A
When you’re sad, when you’re angry
Bm
When you’re bored,
B7 G
You’ve got to do what’s best for yourself
(G) A D B7
Ooo ooo ooooo ooo oo oo oo oo oo oo
G A
La da da da dum
VERSE 5
D A
I awoke; you were gone
Bm F#m
There was nothing left to hold onto
Bm F#m
I was blind, I was wrong
Bm A
But I could find you if I want to
G A
So I fly to the coast where
D E
The boys you love most
G A D
Sing into your eyes
VERSE 6
(D) D A
I was lost, now I’m found
Bm F#m
I can see, but miss the blindness
Bm F#m
Here’s my cross; pound
Bm A
It’s your mouth, your kiss, your kindness
G A
My stigmata’s the regret for how
D E G A Bm
I could have let it all / Go so wrong
OUTRO
G A
I’m going back to the place
D E
Where they laughed in my face
G A D Bm G A Bm
When it all went / All went / All went wrong
G A
Yes, it all went -
D Bm
Isn’t this what you wanted, darling?
G A
All went...
