Capo 1

          

            
Never took you

              
r side, never 

             
cursed your na

  
me;
             
I keep my lips

              
 shut tight un

           
til you go.
            
We've come as 

             
far as we're e

ver gonna get
           
until you real

ize that you s

hould go.

             
I'm in misery 

              
where you can 

       
seem as old as

 your omens,
         
and the mother

 we share will

 never keep yo

ur proud head 

from falling.
             
The way is lon

              
g, but you can

         
 make it easy 

on me,
         
and the mother

 we share will

 never keep ou

r cold hearts 

from calling.

            
In the dead of

              
 night, I'm th

             
e only one her

 
e
             
and I will cov

              
er you until y

      
ou go;
            
'cause if I to

              
ld the truth, 

       
I will always 

be free
            
and keep a pri

ze with me unt

il you go.

             
I'm in misery 

              
where you can 

       
seem as old as

 your omens,
         
and the mother

 we share will

 never keep yo

ur proud head 

from falling.

Into the night

              
, for once, we

        
're the only o

nes left.
           
I bet you even

 know where we

 could go.
            
And when it al

              
l fucks up, yo

           
u put your hea

d in my hands;
        
it's a souveni

r for when you

 go.

             
I'm in misery 

              
where you can 

       
seem as old as

 your omens,
         
and the mother

 we share will

 never keep yo

ur proud head
