[Verse 1]
D#m
Fight after fight
B
Break after break
Night after night
F#
Lying awake
C#
I can't find rest
D#m
Watching you walk
B
Watching you laugh
Watching you talk
F#
It cuts me in half
C#
'Cause no matter how I dress
D#m B D#m B
I can't be enough
D#m B C#
I was never enough
[Chorus]
B
'Cause you like the bad boys
With the long black hair
F#
With their crooked smile
And their death trap stare
C# D#m
And I, no, I'll never compare
B
'Cause we were through before we could start
F#
'Cause he was tattoed on the back of your heart
C#
But when he's busy
D#m
Breaking it apart
B C#
Know that I will always be
D#m
the one to save it
B C#
Know that I will alway be
D#m
Your mother's favorite
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
D#m
Week after week
B
Mile after mile
Unable to speak
F#
Unable to smile
C#
I've made it through
D#m
Word after word
B
Day after day
What I've never heard
F#
Unable to say
C#
To someone new
D#m B D#m B
I love you
D#m B C#
I loved you
[Chorus]
B
But you like the bad boys
With the long black hair
F#
With their crooked smile
And their death trap stare
C# D#m
And I, no, I'll never compare
B
'Cause we were through before we could start
F#
'Cause he was tattoed on the back of your heart
C#
But when he's busy
D#m
Breaking it apart
B C#
Know that I will always be
D#m
Your mother's favorite
[Bridge]
B F#
Stop, stop, stop breaking me down
C#
Stop, stop, stop turning me round
D#m
Stop, stop, stop this war
B F#
I,I, I've learned how to fall
C#
For, for, for the person who calls me
D#m
All they were looking for
[Chorus]
B
But you like the bad boys
With the long black hair
F#
With their crooked smile
And their death trap stare
C# D#m
And I, no, I'll never compare
B
And that's when she came
Like a brand new start
F#
Now, she's the new name on the back of my heart
C#
And when you're busy
D#m
Getting torn apart
B C#
Know that I won't ever be
D#m
The one to save it
B C#
Know that I will always be
D#m B D#m B
Her mother's favourite
D#m B C#
Her mother's favourite
D#m
Her mother's favourite
