Tuning: Standard

Em           C                 D             G
Last night I woke alone with a whisper in my ear (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             B
But it would linger on for years

            C          B               Em
It said "We can't just blame it on our mothers
           C          B              Em
Claim everything they did was always wrong"
          C                 B             Em               C
And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track
            C              B               Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash (watch it crash)
          C                 B             Em               C
And there ain't no right or wrong when we know it won't be long
            C              B               Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash

Em C D G  x3
Em C B

   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     B
Mercy mercy me

    C          B               Em
"We can't just blame it on our mothers
           C          B              Em
Claim everything they did was always wrong"
          C                 B             Em               C
And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track
            C              B               Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash (watch it crash)
          C                 B             Em               C
And there ain't no right or wrong when we know it won't be long
            C              B               D
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash

   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     D
Mercy mercy me

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            B
that's when they finally understood

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     D
Mercy mercy me

C              B               Em
We can't quite blame it on our mothers
           C          B              Em
Claim everything they did was always wrong"
          C                 B             Em               C
And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track
            C              B               Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
          C                 B             Em               C
And there ain't no right or wrong when we know it won't be long
            C              B               Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
         C                 D              B                Em
Watch it crash and there's nothing we can do, but watch it crash...
