Your mother’s voice was bleeding through the ceiling
D G

D G

Bm A G
But I pushed myself right through you for the first time
Bm A G
And I told you that I’d never untrue

oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooooh
G D Bm F# G
And I held you like I never had before

Sister found the pills now for the first time
D G

D G
And father had a seat upon her right side

oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooooh
G D

G D
We were younger than we’d ever been before
G D
Somehow safer than we’d ever been before
