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

[Verse 2]
Bm
Week after week
G
Mile after mile
Unable to speak
D
Unable to smile
A
I've made it through
Bm
Word after word
G
Day after day
What I've never heard
D
Unable to say
A
To someone new
Bm G Bm G
I love you

I loved you
[Chorus]

But you like the bad boys
With the long black hair

With their crooked smile
And their death trap stare
A Bm
And I, no, I'll never compare
G
'Cause we were through before we could start

'Cause he was tattoed on the back of your heart
A
But when he's busy

Breaking it apart

Your mother's favorite
[Bridge]
G D
Stop, stop, stop breaking me down
A
Stop, stop, stop turning me round
Bm
Stop, stop, stop this war
G D
I,I, I've learned how to fall
A
For, for, for the person who calls me
Bm
All they were looking for
[Chorus]
G
But you like the bad boys
With the long black hair
D
With their crooked smile
And their death trap stare
A Bm
And I, no, I'll never compare
G
And that's when she came
Like a brand new start
D
Now, she's the new name on the back of my heart
A
And when you're busy
Bm
Getting torn apart
G A
Know that I won't ever be
Bm
The one to save it
G A
Know that I will always be
Bm G Bm G
Her mother's favourite
Bm G A
Her mother's favourite

Her mother's favourite
