[Verse 1]

C                  F         C
I'm glad that you still came by
   Am            F       C
It wasn't really icy outside
               F         Am
I was just in one of my moods
           F               G            C
Now we're laughing on bed sheets in my room

[Verse 2]

C              F            C
My mother she slept on the couch
Am                      F            C
While deer hooves made holes in the ground
          F         Am      
Maybe my brother's blood
F                   G       C
Dripped on me from the top bunk

[Chorus]

                  G    Am   F         G           Am            F
I keep telling myseeee--eeeelf, that everybody's tale's better than my own
        G   Am   F           C
And my Heeee--eeeeell is my own

[Verse 3]

C                   F          C
The neighbors were young back then
Am                    F      C
And their homes were new to them
                F        Am
Now they can't sleep at night
        F                  G       C     Am                 G       C
'Cause their husbands are dying inside, their husbands are dying inside

[Chorus]

                  G    Am   F         G           Am            F
I keep telling myseeee--eeeelf, that everybody's tale's better than my own
        G   Am   F           
And my Heeee--eeeeell is my own

[Interlude]

Am F Em F C G 

[Bridge]

       Am
These houses are headstones
       F                  Em
These basements they are graves
F                  C               G                   
After getting out, I never thought I would want back in
             C
I want back in

[Chorus]

                  G    Am   F         G           Am            F
I keep telling myseeee--eeeelf, that everybody's tale's better than my own
        G   Am   F          G   Am  F 
And my Heeee--eeeeell is my own
G            Am            F
everybody's tale's better than my own
        G   Am   F           C
And my Heeee--eeeeell is my own
