last night i woke alone with a whisper in my ear ( whisper in my ear )
Em C D G
recanting all my aspirations and my fears
Em C D G
and when the sun came up that voice had disappeared
Em C B
but it would linger on for years

C B Em
it said “we can’t just blame it on our mothers
C B Em
claim everything they did was always wrong”
C B Em C
and there ain’t not turning back when our train is off its track
C B Em
and there’s nothing we can do but watch it crash ( watch it crash )
C B Em C
and there ain’t no right or wrong when we know it won’t be long
C B Em
and there’s nothing we can do but watch it crash

Em C D G x3
Em C B

Em C D G
so mercy , mercy , mercy me
Em C D G
praying for the death of a man i’ll never meet
Em C D G
though everyone will know the truth they’ll still just make believe
Em C B
mercy mercy me

C B Em
“we can’t just blame it on our mothers
C B Em
claim everything they did was always wrong”
C B Em C
and there ain’t not turning back when our train is off its track
C B Em
and there’s nothing we can do but watch it crash ( watch it crash )
C B Em C
and there ain’t no right or wrong when we know it won’t be long
C B D
and there’s nothing we can do but watch it crash

Em C D G
so mercy , mercy , mercy me
Em C D G
praying for the death of a man i’ll never meet
Em C D G
though everyone will know the truth they’ll still just make believe
Em C D
mercy mercy me

Em C D G
that’s all they came for , that’s all they took
Em C D G
that’s all we had to offer , only dirty looks
Em C D G
and when they realized we’d given all we could ,
Em C B
that’s when they finally understood

Em C D G
mercy mercy mercy me
Em C D G
haunted by the memories of things we’ll never see
Em C D G
guilty for the statements that we’ll never get to speak
Em C D
mercy mercy me

C B Em
we can’t quite blame it on our mothers
C B Em
claim everything they did was always wrong”
C B Em C
and there ain’t not turning back when our train is off its track
C B Em
and there’s nothing we can do but watch it crash
C B Em C
and there ain’t no right or wrong when we know it won’t be long
C B Em
and there’s nothing we can do but watch it crash
C D B Em
watch it crash and there’s nothing we can do , but watch it crash . . .
