I'm trying to lose myself

  Em

   G                              B

                 C
Scars of an eight-year-old
     G                B7
Whose mother applied the same rules
To her kid's body
         Em

Were my mother's weekend lovers
                        Em
And their alcoholic breaths
         G

          G

          G

             G
If you'll handle the effects (the effects, the effects)
               G
I'll tell you what caused it
               G
If you'll handle the effects (the effects, the effects)
            G
Yes, I'll tell you what caused it
              G
If you'll handle the effects (whoa!)
