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

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