Verse 1:
A
You woke your drunk mother up
D
She called you by her brother's name
Bm
Who died when she was eighteen
A
And as you carry her up to her bed
D
She says she didn't mean it when
Bm
She told him he was nothing
A
You think about the years he lost
D
The cost of when somebody's gone
Bm
Gone to the ages
A
And how the last words that she said to him
D
Is something she's regretted since
Bm
She's drinking to escape it
D
And so you tuck her in and tell her Tim forgives her and he loves her
Verse 2:

Parents hide their secrets but they spill out on the pavement
Bm D
Children take on demons pass them on through generations
A D
There's things we never speak of and they keep us locked in cages
Bm D
Painted on these faces when inside we're all decaying
Bm
His jacket's in the closet and she wears it when she's drinking
