E
Unwanted but breathing
In the next room sleeping
C#m
My mother shes crying
And my fathers been drinking
E
In our rundown apartment
Where the roof is still leaking
C#m
Hes cursing and cussing
Its just the whiskey talking
A C#m
And Ive got lots of memories like this one
A E
Of empty days and nights spent tired and lonesome
F#m
When I think back to all of it
A
Its all too much
Oh its all too much when youre just a little kid
E C#m
E
My little brother just a newborn baby
C#m
In the image of my mother says hes a blessing
E
But not to my father oh how he hates him
C#m
An undeserving mistake He calls him a burden
A C#m
And Ive got lots of memories like this one
A E
Of picking sides and picking fights between them
F#m
When I think back to all of it
A
Well its all too much
Well its all too much when youre just a little kid
A E A E
And when I wake up in the morning it all feels like a bad dream
A E A E
One that follows you and haunts you endlessly
A
Yeah haunts me endlessly
Well broken and beaten from the abuse and the cheating
C#m
The addiction and the lying and the promise of leaving
E
While my old man was a bastard I admired and loved him
C#m
And us two kids we were born in to a family not a fortune no
E C#m
E C#m
E C#m
E C#m
