Verse:
E         Bb
Though we barely survived,
E       Bb        E
I never felt more alive.
Em      Am        G          Am
I feel ashamed of where I’ve been…
E     Am         B           D             E
Oh to be a motherless child, beat still my heart.

Chorus:
G    D                 Ab        Bm       Am
Your weaknesses they vacation in my dreams
G   D    Ab      Bm   G  D     Ab     Bm       Am
And when I’m not sure if you’ll haunt me in my sleep…
E         B
I’ll know you’re there
E                   B    G
Coursing through my veins.

Verse:
E                  Bb
Try and starve the devil inside.(Predisposition is I should’ve known better.)
E           Bb
We burn out dull out of spite. (The family crest is our medication.)
Em          Am  G               Am
This bitter pill I’ve swallowed down
Em         Am             G        Am
Is greeted by a poisonous smile, a calcified heart,
E           Am       B        D       E
A cancerous gut, the appetite to give up.

Chorus:
G    D                 Ab        Bm       Am
Your weaknesses they vacation in my dreams
G   D    Ab      Bm   G  D    Ab      Bm           Am
And when I’m not sure if I’ll see you in my dreams…

E                D            G
I’ll stay up all night on the floor
       D                G
Taking pills to keep me warm
          D                G
Until I’m not sure I exist anymore.
                D               G
But that’s just fine it’s who I am
     D          G
I appreciate my pain
        D           G
Cause I never had a choice.
           D         G
And it was you or nothing can hurt me like I hurt myself.
