Last night I woke alone with a whisper in my ear
EmCDG
Recanting all my aspirations and my fears
EmCDG
And when the sun came up that voice had disappeared
EmCB7
But it would linger on for years
CB7Em
It said 'We can't just blame it on our mothers
CB7Em
Claim everything they did was always wrong'
CB7GEm
And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track
CB7EmD
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
CB7GEm
And there ain't no right and wrong when we know it won't be long
CB7Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
EmCDG
So mercy, mercy, mercy me
EmCDG
Praying for the death of a man I'll never meet
EmCDG
Though everyone will know the truth they'll still just make believe
EmCB7
Mercy mercy me
EmCDG
That's all they came for, that's all they took
EmCDG
That's all we had to offer, only dirty looks
EmCDG
And when they realized we'd given all we could,
EmCB7
that's when they finally understood
CB7Em
That We can't just blame it on our mothers
CB7Em
Claim everything they did was always wrong
CB7GEm
And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track
CB7EmD
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
CB7GEm
And there ain't no right and wrong when we know it won't be long
CB7Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
EmCDG
Mercy mercy mercy me
EmCDG
Haunted by the memories of things we'll never see
EmCDG
Guilty for the statements that we'll never get to speak
EmCB7
Mercy mercy me
CB7Em
We can't just blame it on our mothers
CB7Em
Claim everything they did was always wrong
CB7GEm
And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track
CB7EmD
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
CB7GEm
And there ain't no right and wrong when we know it won't be long
CB7Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
AmCB7
Watch it crash. And there's nothing we can do but watch it... Crash
