INTRO: E E E E G E E E 

      E                                            G#
Well, you came into this world naked, screaming and covered in blood
A                                 F#
who was there to wipe you off and give you your first hug?

       E                                       G#
And it took a couple years to figure out how to not shit in your pants
    A                                     F#
but someone was there to clean you up and powder off your rash

G# - A         G# - A          G# -A                     G# - A
It's been them from the start, the ones you tortured and broke their hearts
A -B                    A - B                    A -B 
the two that you hate - the two that you blame - the very same ones that
              B
gave you your name

E                                                 G#
Remember the time you were five and you lied about who broke your lamp?
A                                       F#
Who were the ones that sat you down and gave you a second chance?



(PD-  CHORUS)

G# - A         G# - A          G# -A                     G# - A
It's been them from the start, the ones you tortured and broke their hearts

A -B                    A - B                    A -B 
the two that you hate - the two that you blame - the very same ones that

              B
gave you your name



CHORUS:
E                           G#
 Go home to Mom and Dad and say you're sorry,
         A                            F#         
It's the least that you can do, after all you've put them through.
Oh, come on.
E                              G#
Beg Mom and Dad's forgiveness, they deserve it.
A                          F#               B               E
 Even if you don't mean it, make them believe you that it's true.
(INTRO)

E                             G# 
 And when they offered you up all that great advice,
A                                       F#
 you just screamed "Fuck you, both- and let me live my life!
E                                               G#
 I'm gonna go out drinking with my friends have unprotected sex,
A                                    F#           B
pierce my nose and get a tattoo of a dragon on my neck!"


(CHORUS)
D                    B                              E
 Cuz now your 35 and working in a warehouse cuz you spent your college money 
on cocaine

        D                          B
And the shame of your existence is ever so persistent cuz you know your parents tried
              E                 B
and you're to blame - you're to blame, cuz..
