[Intro]
A C#7 Fm E
[Verse]
A C#7
How does it make you feel?
Fm E
To feel the way you do?
A C#7
To be locked in a window
Fm E
But have a crow free in the blue.
A C#7
Days go by,
Fm E
Same old routine
A C#7
Knowing you'll never fly,
Fm E
Or anything in between.
[Chorus]
A Fm
Mother, where did I go wrong?
E
Did I do this to myself?
Have I been like this all along?
A Fm
Father, couldn't you save me?
E
Weren't there any warning signs?
E Fm C#7
Like a storm rising in the sea?
N.C. A
Or did you just not want to believe?
C#7 Fm E D Dm
[Verse 2]
A C#7
Treat yourself but eat right
Fm E
It's all done in moderation.
A C#7
They make up rules that keep you up at night.
Fm E
But they tell you you're on vacation.
A C#7
They made up normal and they say you don't
Fm E
Quite match their description.
A C#7
To fix you up they throw you in a home,
Fm E
And fill you with a prescription
[Chorus]
A Fm
Mother, where did I go wrong?
E
Did I do this to myself?
Have I been like this all along?
A Fm
Father, couldn't you save me?
E
Weren't there any warning signs?
E Fm C#7
Like a storm rising in the sea?
N.C. A
Or did you just not want to believe?
C#7 Fm E D Dm
A C#7 Fm E x4
[Outro]
A Fm
Oh, but you're better now.
E
You can finally sleep,
You've put in your hours.
A Fm
Oh, come on dear friend.
E
Is there anyone to pick you up,
E Fm C#7
Does anyone care in the end?
A
Will they ever lend a hand?
