Intro: D 

verse 1 
D               Am 
I've never been alone 
               G 
Long enough to know 
                D 
If I ever was a child 

D                    Am 
I was tied up like a boat 
                   G 
On a button like a coat 
               D 
Set free for a while 
 
    Em                     Gm 
I'd jump to jolt my clumsy blood 
         D            A    
While my white, green eyes 

verse 2 
D                 Am 
Cry like a window pane 
                  G 
Can my cold heart change 
            D 
Even out of spite? 

Solo 
D Am G D 

  Em            Gm              D 
I saw behind my brain a haunted stain 
         A 
It never fades 
  Em                   Gm         A 
I hunt for the kind of pain I can take 

verse 3 
      D                 Am 
And I cry like a window pane 
                  G 
Can my cold heart change 
     D 
Over night? 
    
   D                    Am 
So I won't ever want to touch 
               G 
Your heart too much 
                D 
Or hold you too tight 

  Em            Gm              D 
I saw behind my brain a haunted stain 
          A 
I'll never fade 
  Em                   Gm         A 
I hunt for the kind of pain I can take 

Coda 
D           Am 
I never was alone 
               G 
Long enough to know 
                D  
If I ever was a child
