Intro (Acoustic) - Am F Fmmaj7 F Fmmaj7 x2
Verse 1:
Am F Fmmaj7
Well this is forced and I am drowning now
F Fmmaj7
and I'm buried underneath the ground
Am F Fmmaj7 F Fmmaj7
And I've learned that my face molds into my hands
Am F Fmmaj7
Well everyone here looks too good for me
F Fmmaj7
And if God has no sympathy he'd say
Am F Fmmaj7 F Fmmaj7
Son, you're the one thing in this world that I didn't spend time on.
Cmaj9 F
So am I slowly losing my mind?
Chorus:
C
I'm on my knees
F
I'm begging please
Am Cmaj9 F
But Mary says don't be a fool
C F
And the hysteria that's inside of me
Am Cmaj9 F
Is turning me into a fool
C F(Only DGB Strings) x2
C Cmaj9 C Cmaj9 F (Only DGB Strings)
Don't cry young boy, cause mama's coming home
Verse 2:
Am F Fmmaj7
Well as a boy he'd rub his wrists on fences
F Fmmaj7
And then realize he'd lost his senses
Am F Fmmaj7 F Fmmaj7
He goes home, screaming in pain while his mother cleans his cuts
Am F Fmmaj7
But 10 years later and he's had enough
F Fmmaj7
He's on a building looking to jump
Am F Fmmaj7 F Fmmaj7
He says if Jesus walked on water, than I could walk on air
Cmaj9 F
But as he falls he hears his mother cry,
Cmaj9 F
He looks at her and then he dies
Chorus:
C
Well I'm on my knees
F
I'm begging please

But Mary says don't be a fool

And the hysteria that's inside of me
Am Cmaj9 F
Is turning me into a fool
