You'll raise the daughter and she'll raise the son
E
You'll live like two people that wish they were one
F# F# G#m
She may not be perfect but oh my friend neither are you
G#m
You feel like you're waiting for somebody
E
to remind you of all the things that you're supposed to do
F# F# G#m
Careful what you reach for, one more step and you're falling through
G#m
Your family's a joke and your job is your life
E
The time spent without them is time spent most every night
F# F#
Get your house in order 'cause it's gonna be a bump ride.
E
You can't stop
E G#m
You can't stop the killer
E
You can't stop
E G#m F#
You can't stop the killer
G#m
I work my hands right down to the bone
E
still you don't give me what I want
F# F# G#m
You are so ungrateful, we're more like a house than a home
G#m E
Please dear understand, I'm sorry again for all that I said
F# F# G#m
How could you leave? I swear that I'll be a better man
G#m
Well, go ahead and run, run,
E
run from the man with the gun in his hand
F# F#
Darling I would shoot you before I would ever
E
let you leave
F#
Oh, dear God
E
In a certain place I've kept my outs,
one for us both, two for my doubts,
G#m
I'm shaking, I'm hollow because
E
I know how to get this done
G#m
so I will be the only to follow
to follow through with this
E
In a certain place I've kept my outs,

to follow through with this.
G#m
You kneel beside her at the foot of the grave
E
Your daughter is crying
and you say she's in a better place
F#
She was never perfect,
F# G#m
oh, my friend, neither were you
that’s it
