Tom: Am
F C
I fear that this room will be empty
G Am
Where I plan on becoming a man
F C
But I need someone special to hold me,
G Am
I've been dying inside of my skin
F C
You told me you'd always be with me
G Am
Well I feel you will never return
F C
Like the thief that is stealing my witness
G Am
I gave him the time that I thought he deserves
[Verse 2]
F C
I am losing my faith in a Father
G Am
Well he never stays on just for me
F C
And the mouth that spoke death to my mother
G Am
Has just swallowed the claim that I need
F C
There is no more resisting the battle
G Am
I have gained all the demons you saved
F C
And the woman has taken the saddle
G Am
And rode the black horse to the grave
[Interlude]
F C G Am x2
[Verse 3]
F C
Well I'm helpless and don't have the answer
G Am
Like the man who's selling his soul
F C
Well I told you I'd always be faithful
G Am
Now I swear I'm the bastard you know
F C
And I've been crying as if you offend me
G Am
I am torn like the ragged young man
F C
As I walked down the street with your family
G Am
I have cursed at the sky once again
[Chorus]
Am F C G Am
Oh and I am so helpless
Am F C G Am
And I am so helpless
Am F C G Am
And I am so helpless
[Verse 4]
F C
It feels like my face is on fire
G Am
And my body was made out of stone
F C
And it hurts me to know I'm a liar
G Am
And it kills me to think I'm alone
