[Verse 1]
Em C D G
Last night I woke alone with a 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 B7
But it would linger on for years
C B7 Em
It said "We can't just blame it on our mothers
C B7 Em
Claim everything they did was always wrong"
C B7 G Em
And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track
C B7 Em D
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
C B7 G Em
And there ain't no right and wrong when we know it won't be long
C B7 Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
[Chorus]
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 B7
Mercy mercy me
[Verse 2]
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 B7
that's when they finally understood
[Refrain]
C B7 Em
That We can't just blame it on our mothers
C B7 Em
Claim everything they did was always wrong
C B7 G Em
And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track
C B7 Em D
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
C B7 G Em
And there ain't no right and wrong when we know it won't be long
C B7 Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
[Chorus]
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 B7
Mercy mercy me
[Refrain]
N.C.
We can't just blame it on our mothers
C B7 Em
Claim everything they did was always wrong
C B7 G Em
And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track
C B7 Em D
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
C B7 G Em
And there ain't no right and wrong when we know it won't be long
C B7 Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
Am C B7
Watch it crash. And there's nothing we can do but watch it... Crash
