You never need forgiveness

Raised up on hate

To a life that's second rate

I've seen that look before
G C
Behind some closing door
Pattern 1:
You couldn't be delivered
You just wouldn't be denied
To much a child
Confident and wild
Nobody taught you how to live
G F (not C)
What to keep and what to give
Pattern 2:

Who bring her flowers for her hair

Pattern 1:
I didn't know what to bring you
You don't seem to need too much at all
No pearls or chains
And nobody's sad refrains
Every time I wonder why
G (hold)
I think back to the kindness in your eyes
Pattern 2:
Now everybody wants you
Bring you flowers for your hair
But every night you count on me
To peel you off the wall
Then you smile
And I just lose control
You rain on me
Rain down on me
Rain down on me
I used to think I knew
What I was fighting for
I don't think that anymore
