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 
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...
