_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [A] I _ _ _ [D] scream at you, [G] _
Sherry, I [D] curse you, Charles, [G] Kerry.
_ [D] I hate the clothes [G] you're wearing, they're so [A] pretty. _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ I like to see me, I _ _ _ like to [G] feel me, _ _ [D] _ _ I like to [Em] drag and get it, it's such [A] a pity. _
I _ _ _ [D] watch your warmth go [G] fading, I [D] watch your smile _
[G] fading.
As [D] you _ realize you're [G] failing, cause you're [A] so good. _
_ _ _ [D] I don't mean to upset you, _ there's so much crime to get through.
_ If I could make [Em] it easier than [A] I would. _
_ _ _ [D] I wish I [G] wasn't mother, [Bm] _ [D] I wish I'd been [G] a father.
_ [D] The man _ [Em] that I've seen in you would [G] have been you as [A] it _ shines. _ _ _
[D] Laying houses with [G] your sisters _ [D] and prayers for love.
[G] _ _ [Bm] _ [G]
[D] The man who'd _ [Em] _ have built [G] a family [A] forever. _ _ _

[D] It's no use me [G] pretending, you [D] give I do the [G] spending.
_ _ [D] Is there a happy [Em] ending?
I [A] don't think so. _ _ _
_ _ [D] Cause if _ _ [G] _
you're [D] too far [G] to take it, you'll [D] have to try and [Em] shake it from [A] my hand. _
_ _ _ [D] I wish I [G] wasn't mother, _ [D] I wish I'd been [G] a father.

[D] _ _ _ _ [Em] who'd have [G] built a family forever.
