Intro
Em C G D
[Verse 1]
Em
Fight after fight
C
Break after break
Night after night
G
Lying awake
D
I can't find rest
Em
Watching you walk
C
Watching you laugh
Watching you talk
G
It cuts me in half
D
'Cause no matter how I dress
Em C Em C
I can't be enough
Em C D
I was never enough
[Chorus]
C
'Cause you like the bad boys
With the long black hair
G
With their crooked smile
And their death trap stare
D Em
And I, no, I'll never compare
C
'Cause we were through before we could start
G
'Cause he was tattoed on the back of your heart
D
But when he's busy
Em
Breaking it apart
C D
Know that I will always be
Em
the one to save it
C D
Know that I will alway be
Em
Your mother's favorite
[Instrumental]
Em C Em C Em C D
[Verse 2]
Em
Week after week
C
Mile after mile
Unable to speak
G
Unable to smile
D
I've made it through
Em
Word after word
C
Day after day
What I've never heard
G
Unable to say
D
To someone new
Em C Em C
I love you
Em C D
I loved you
[Chorus]
C
But you like the bad boys
With the long black hair
G
With their crooked smile
And their death trap stare
D Em
And I, no, I'll never compare
C
'Cause we were through before we could start
G
'Cause he was tattoed on the back of your heart
D
But when he's busy
Em
Breaking it apart
C D
Know that I will always be
Em
Your mother's favorite
[Bridge]
C G
Stop, stop, stop breaking me down
D
Stop, stop, stop turning me round
Em
Stop, stop, stop this war
C G
I,I, I've learned how to fall
D
For, for, for the person who calls me
Em
All they were looking for
[Chorus]
C
But you like the bad boys
With the long black hair
G
With their crooked smile
And their death trap stare
D Em
And I, no, I'll never compare
C
And that's when she came
Like a brand new start
G
Now, she's the new name on the back of my heart
D
And when you're busy
Em
Getting torn apart
C D
Know that I won't ever be
Em
The one to save it
C D
Know that I will always be
Em C Em C
Her mother's favourite
Em C D
Her mother's favourite
Em
Her mother's favourite
