Key: C
Introduction:
G C9 D4
I tuck you in ever so gently
Em C D
Still you cried and turned from me
Em7
You stepped on my heart
Am
I forgave you just like mothers do
C D Em7
From under your shoes I still carried you
C Cm
Soon my body will burn into ashes and dust
G Em7
And rain will turn all that glitter to rust
Am
One last pill for the pain
D G B7
Sit down, let me explain
Em Bm
Why my bruises stay
C G D
My child I know you never meant to
Em7 Bm
These scars just won't fade away
C G D
And I'm sure you never knew
G D
I give up, I give in
Em C
Help December let a new year begin
G D
Take what's left and move on
Cm7 B7
Fly away
Em
Be gone
