[Verse 1]
Never Amtook your side, never Gcursed your name
                                   F(F)
I keep my lips shut tight, until you go
We've Amcome as far, as we're Gever gonna get
                                 F(F)
Until you realize, that you should go
[Chorus]
I'm in Cmisery where you can seem as Emold as your omens
                                            F(F)
And the mother we share will never keep your proud head from falling
The Cway is long, but you can make it Emeasy on me
                                           F(F)
And the mother we share will never keep our cold hearts from calling
[Verse 2]
In the Amdead of night, I'm the Gonly one here
                              F(F)
And I will cover you, until you go
And if I Amtold the truth, I will Galways be free
                                  F(F)
And keep a prize with me, until you go
[Chorus]
I'm in Cmisery where you can seem as Emold as your omens
                                            F(F)
And the mother we share will never keep your proud head from falling
The Cway is long, but you can make it Emeasy on me
                                           F(F)
And the mother we share will never keep our cold hearts from calling
Am    G    F
[Verse 3]
Into the Amnight, for once, we're the Emonly ones left
                                  F(F)
I bet you even know, where we could go
And when it Amall fucks up, you put your Emhead in my hands
                            F(F)
It's a souvenir, for when you go
[Chorus]
I'm in Cmisery where you can seem as Emold as your omens
                                            F(F)
And the mother we share will never keep your proud head from falling
The Cway is long, but you can make it Emeasy on me
                                           F(F)
And the mother we share will never keep our cold hearts from calling
C    Em    F
C    Em    F
