Tuning: Down 1/2 step
D A
She spent the night out with a guy who gives attention when she cries
Bm A
herself to sleep, I heard her say...
D A Bm
And so she gives him what he wants as long as he can make her feel ok, but
A
she's not ok
G D
And we avoid the topics, we make the kids have secrets
Bm A
When they are exposed and everyone else knows
G D
We'll say we never knew it, that they had a problem
Bm D
'Cause if we would have known, we surely would have solved it
Bm D A Bm D A
But we can't, it's too late, I said we can't it's too late
D A
He's skipping classes 'cause he hates them, hopes he passes, not to take
Bm A
them all again, I heard him say...
D A
He escapes them with the pills, the ones he takes to make him feel like he's
Bm A
ok, but he's not ok
G D
And we avoid the topics, we make the kids have secrets
Bm A
When they are exposed and everyone else knows
G D
We'll say we never knew it, that they had a problem
Bm D
'Cause if we would have known, we surely would have solved it
Bm D A Bm D A
But we can't, it's too late, I said we can't it's too late
Em D Bm A
God you've gotta save us, we hide behind the faces that we make to disguise
Em D Bm
The things that were ashamed of and all the ugly things that make us close
A
our eyes
D Bm A D Bm A
They make us close our eyes, why do we close our eyes?
G D
And we avoid the topics, we make the kids have secrets
Bm A
When they are exposed and everyone else knows
G D
We'll say we never knew it, that they had a problem
Bm D
'Cause if we would have known, we surely would have solved it
Bm D A Bm D A
But we can't, it's too late, I said we can't it's too late
