Padriac My Price

(início)

Am                          G
I had a brother once, he drowned in a bathtub
Am                                                          G
Before he had ever learned how to talk, and I don’t know what his name was
E
But my mother does, I heard her say it once
Am                                                           G
                F
Padriac, my prince, I've all but died from the sheer weight of my shame
F                             Am
You cried but no one came and the water filled your tiny lungs
Am                                                           G
                F
Appear, my dear, and cry for me it was six years ago today
F                             Am
That we laid you in your grave, your sweet young skin was shining then too
Am                                            G
And so tonight to celebrate, I will, I will poison myself
Am                                                                    G
Another coughing, shaking fit in a bathroom that is spinning
C                   G           Am       C
         G
So I close the door and rest my head on the tile floor
C                   G           Am       C
         G
Sickness and sleep turning me cold, I'm still not sure
C                   G           Am       C
         F
If there's some better place I could be heading towards
C                   G           Am       E
         Am
Where the selfishly sick and self absorbed are welcome
Am                          G
I saw the future once, I was drunk in a phone booth
Am                                                          G
My eyes were wet and red I could not tell what was said
E
And through the screams of the traffic, voices carried, saying, "Im sorry"
Am                                                           G
                F
On a day so gray it's black inside watching churches on T.V.
F                             Am
In a coma you don’t dream you just hope that someone sits with you
Am                                                           G
                F
Babies turn blue when they're ignored like the sky on summer days
F                             Am
Before you turn and walk away it has changed you
Am                                            G
So tonight to compensate, I will, I will poison myself
Am                                                                    G
