F F C G
G Am F
[verse (1)]
Am
We were like brothers
G
Everybody said we looked the same
C
You a little taller, and broader
And bolder, we were afraid of your
Am G
Mother, hell she used to hit you so hard
C
And your dad took off when you were a baby
F Am
And you still hate me for my dad stuck around
G
You pin me to the ground
C
Eight years old with a replica gun
F
Pushin' in my skull, saying you're gonna kill me
Am G
If i tell, never did, and i never will
C F
That house was living hell---Come on
[instrumental x4]
F C G G Am F
[verse (2)]
Am G
I remember my mother when she found a new man
C
And your mother thought she found a partner
Am
A father for you, no wonder you can't stand me
G
I can't stand me, too
C F
I can't stand me, too
Am G
Oh, your gone mother repaired the anger in me
C
Spoke to me like i was an adult
F Am
Didn't take sides and didn't turn me against my dad
G F
Then she took those pills and now she's gone
[bridge]
F G Am C Dm
See her in the night
F G Am C Dm
In the corner of my eye
F G Am C Dm F
And i see her in the night
[instrumental x4]
F C G G Am F
[verse (3)]
C G
Heard you glassed a boy back in the borders
Am F
Some naughty family boys are after you
C G
You pinned me to the wall and said my mother
Am F
Stole your inheritance from you, oh yeah?
C G
We ain't got a penny between us
Am F
Holding up this tin that we live in
C G
You pinned me to the wall and smashed a bottle
F
Your eyes the door to hell and all within

[Verse 1]
We were like brothers
Everybody said we looked the same
You a little taller, and broader, and bolder
We were afraid of your mother
Hell, she used to hit you so hard
And your dad took off when you were a baby
And you still hate me for my dad stuck around
You pin me to the ground
Eight years old with a replica gun pushin' in my skull
Saying you're gonna kill me if I tell
Never did, and I never will
That house was living hell
Come on
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
I remember my mother when she found a new man
And your mother thought she found a partner
A father for you, no wonder you can't stand me
I can't stand me, too
I can't stand me, too
Oh, your gone mother repaired the anger in me
Spoke to me like I was an adult
Didn't take sides and didn't turn me against my dad
Then she took those pills and now she's gone
[Bridge]
See her in the night
In the corner of my eye
And I see her in the night
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
Heard you glassed a boy back in the borders
Some naughty family boys are after you
You pinned me to the wall and said my mother
Stole your inheritance from you, oh yeah?
We ain't got a penny between wor
Holding up this tin that we live in
You pinned me to the wall and smashed a bottle
Your eyes the door to hell and all within
Ha
