[INTRO]~
C B A G Em
C D A G Em
[VERSE ONE]~
C B A G Em
I never knew that we were those people
C D A G Em
The kind of people think of as the bad seeds yeah
C B A G Em
The kind that make you feel like you're so lucky
C D A G Em
The kind that guilt you out of your fun grade
[CHORUS]~
Em B/D#
Oh,.. please forget me for my sins
Em B/D#
My charming orneriness has got me once again
Em B/D#
My father sent me out,.. he told me what to do
Em B/D#
But instead of listening I stuck prickle needles in his shoes
Em B
He tried to run,.. he tried to follow
Em B
But just at the sight of the blood he couldn't run much farther
Em B
And I felt bad just for a second
Em B
But mainly I was laughing because I just ran away
Em B
I just ran away from everything good in my life that was happening
[POST CHORUS]~
D# C# C
She never knew,.. and I didn't try and stop it
C# D# C# C
She never knew,.. called me crazy again for the seventh time
C# D# C# C
She never knew,.. yeah,.. this is that deep dark tale
C# D# C# C C# D# C# C
She never knew,.. well it goes where it goes and it never leaves a trail
[VERSE TWO]~
C B A G Em
C D A G Em
C B A G Em
He brought me an ice pack for my bruises
C D A G Em
But the ice pack proved to be quite useless
C B A G Em
Because I didn't have bumps; I had cuts
C D A G Em
And he shouldn't try to numb it,.. I need a bandage
[CHORUS]~
Em B/D#
Oh,.. please forget me for my sins
Em B/D#
My charming orneriness has got me once again
Em B/D#
My father sent me out,.. he told me what to do
Em B/D#
But instead of listening,.. I filled up his cup to the top with glue
Em B
He tried to drink,.. he tried to swallow
Em B
But due to the lack of the air his face was turning dark blue
Em B
And I felt bad just for a second
Em B
But mainly I was laughing because I just brought the day
Em B
I had just brought the day of everything weird in my life that was mattering
[POST CHORUS]~
D# C# C
She never knew,.. well it's true I could have saved him
C# D# C# C
She never knew,.. I just sat there cold-faced for the longest time
C# D# C# C
She never knew,.. yeah,.. this is that kind of tale
C# D# C# C C# D# C# C
She never knew,.. what I did was my job so it's not considered betrayal
[OUTRO]~
F Em C
F G C
F Em C F G C
He took my calls,.. he called me vicious
F Em C F G C
Told me that my arms and opinions,.. were ash and fruitless
F Em C F G C
Well,.. if I'm wrong,.. go tell your God
F Em C F G C
That I'm an illness,.. a raving sickness
F Em C F G C
The way we blame,.. it's not the same
F Em C F G C
The way I came,.. always a game
C B A G Em
