 INTRO: E E E E G E E E
 
       E                                            G#               
 Well, you came into this world naked, screaming and covered in blood
 A                                 F#                      
 who was there to wipe you off and give you your first hug?
 
        E                                       G#                     
 And it took a couple years to figure out how to not shit in your pants
     A                                     F#                  
 but someone was there to clean you up and powder off your rash
 
 G# - A         G# - A          G# -A                     G# - A            
 It's been them from the start, the ones you tortured and broke their hearts
 A -B                    A - B                    A -B                   
 the two that you hate - the two that you blame - the very same ones that
               B   
 gave you your name
 
 E                                                 G#                   
 Remember the time you were five and you lied about who broke your lamp?
 A                                       F#                       
 Who were the ones that sat you down and gave you a second chance?
 
 
 (PRE- CHORUS)
 
 G# - A         G# - A          G# -A                     G# - A            
 It's been them from the start, the ones you tortured and broke their hearts
 
 A -B                    A - B                    A -B                   
 the two that you hate - the two that you blame - the very same ones that
 
               B   
 gave you your name
 
 
 CHORUS:
 E                           G#               
  Go home to Mom and Dad and say you're sorry,
          A                            F#                          
 It's the least that you can do, after all you've put them through.
 Oh, come on.
 E                              G#              
 Beg Mom and Dad's forgiveness, they deserve it.
 A                          F#               B               E    
  Even if you don't mean it, make them believe you that it's true.
 (INTRO)
 
 E                             G#                    
  And when they offered you up all that great advice,
 A                                       F#                  
  you just screamed "Fuck you, both- and let me live my life!
 E                                               G#              
  I'm gonna go out drinking with my friends have unprotected sex,
 A                                    F#           B     
 pierce my nose and get a tattoo of a dragon on my neck!"
 
 (CHORUS)
 D                    B                              E                       
  Cuz now your 35 and working in a warehouse cuz you spent your college money
 on cocaine
 
         D                          B                                                 
 And the shame of your existence is ever so persistent cuz you know your parents tried
               E                 B           
 and you're to blame - you're to blame, cuz..
