A
And baby I don't mind
Bm Bm D/C#
If my name is not the kind word you're looking for

I can stay away, no I don't need to lay myself before your door
A
Baby I won't cry if I won't never see your eyes again
Bm Bm D/C#
before I'm done
D E
No I won't feel no pain if I hear down the train
F#m E
that you're moving on
[Chorus]
A E
Baby when the storm rolls and batters your bones

I hope that she keeps you happy at home

I tried but I just couldn't be

Baby when the glory hunts you down

You don't have the strength to carry the crown
A E Bm D
I hope that you're happy to be
[Verse]
A
Baby if it's true that I was bad for you

Then I apologize

I only ever tried to keep you satisfied

While you analyzed

Everything I said seemed to drop like lead before your haunting eyes
D E F#m E
All I ever did was love you like a kid and now we'll know the skies

Baby when the storm rolls and batters your bones

I hope that she keeps you happy at home (like I know you wanted)
