[Primeira Parte]

Bbm                G#
I dunno what I was thinking,
C#               F#
Leaving my child behind,
Bbm              G#              
Now I suffer the curse and now I 
C#       F
am blind
Bbm                  G#
With all this anger, guilt and 
sadness,
C#        D°       F#
Coming to haunt me forever,
                     F           
I can't wait for the cliff at the 
            Bbm
end of the river,
Bbm                  G#
Is this revenge I am seeking,
   C#                 F#
Or seeking someone to avange me
      Bbm           G#            
Stuck in my own paradox I wanna 
  C#          F
set myself free
   Bbm         G#
Maybe I should chase and find
   C#          D°          F#
before they'll try to stop it
   F#            F                
It won't be long before I'll 
    Bbm
become a puppet

[Refrão]

     Bbm     G#
It's been so long 

C#                        D°
Since I last have seen my son
             F#
lost to this monster
       F               Bbm
to the man behind the slaughter
      Bbm         G#
Since you've been gone
          C#                  D°
I've been singing this stupid song
           F#
So I could ponder
     F             Bbm
The sanity of your mother

[Segunda Parte]

Bbm                   G#
I wish I lived in the present
         C#              F#
With the gift of my past mistakes
        Bbm                 G#    
But the future keeps luring in 
            C#      F
like a pack of snakes
     Bbm          G#              
Your sweet little eyes, your 
  C#
little smile,
   D°       F#
is all I remember
      F#          F               
Those fuzzy memories mess with my 
Bbm
temper
Bbm              G#
Justification is killing me
    C#            F#
But killing isn't justified
     Bbm            G#     
What happened to my son, I'm 
       C#   F
terrified
   Bbm           G#         
It lingers in my mind and the 
          C#       D°      F#
thought keeps on getting bigger,
    F#             F              
I'm sorry my sweet baby, I wish 
   Bbm
I've been there.

[Refrão]

     Bbm     G#
It's been so long 

C#                        D°
Since I last have seen my son
             F#
lost to this monster
       F              Bbm
to the man behind the slaughter

      Bbm         G#
Since you've been gone
          C#                  D°
I've been singing this stupid song
           F#
So I could ponder
     F             Bbm
