Intro
|============|============|============|============|
| G A | Bm7 A/C# | Bm7 A/C# | D F#m7 |
Verse 1
[G] When I was nine I got this [A]feeling
Something like [F#m7]grieving
I was too [Bm7]young to [A]understand
[G] Our home was bleeding from the [A]ceiling
Still hear the [F#m7]screaming
This dirty [Bm7]hum [A]inside my [G]head
Verse 2
Now I [A]scare myself [F#m7]sometimes
Cocaine [Bm7]rails and [A]twisted eyes
[G] When you're from where we are you [A]face shit
You scrap in [F#m7]basements
N.C.
We had no choice, we grew up fast
Chorus
[G]'Cause our [A]moms still smoke [D/F#]inside
And they [Bm7]all still [A]got mob [G]ties
But they [A]pray to Jesus [D/F#]Christ
That's the [Bm7]funny [A]part of life
[G]'Cause I'm [A]scared of bugs that [D/F#]bite
Scared of [Bm7]being [A]alone at [G]night
Yeah, I'm [A]scared to death of [D/F#]heights
But I'm [Bm7]not afraid to die

Verse 2
[Gadd9] All of the nights we ate in [A]silence
Holding in [F#m7]violence
Still got my [Bm7]temper [A]from my [Gadd9]dad
Never [A]learned to take my [F#m7]time
And I [Bm7]wasn't allowed to cry
Chorus
[G]'Cause our [A]moms still smoke [D/F#]inside
And they [Bm7]all still [A]got mob [G]ties
But they [A]pray to Jesus [D/F#]Christ
That's the [Bm7]funny [A]part of life
[G]'Cause I'm [A]scared of bugs that [D/F#]bite
Scared of [Bm7]being [A]alone at [G]night
Yeah, I'm [A]scared to death of [D/F#]heights
But I'm [Bm7]not [A]afraid to die

Bridge
[Gadd9]'Cause there's [A]nothing good in [F#m7]life
If you [Bm7]don't know [A]smart from [Gadd9]wise
Yeah, our [A]moms still smoke [F#m7]inside
And they [Bm7]all still [A]got mob [Gadd9]ties
And my [A]heart's in [F#m7]overdrive
On my [Bm7][A]balcony at [G]night
[A] Yeah, I'm [Bm7]scared to [A/C#]death of [Bm7]heights
[A/C#] But I'm [D]not afraid
Chorus
'Cause our moms still smoke [D/F#]inside
And they [G5]all [F#5]still [E5]got [D5]mob [G]ties
But they [A]pray to Jesus [D/F#]Christ
That's the [Bm7]funny [A]part of life
[G]'Cause I'm [A]scared of bugs that [D/F#]bite
Scared of [Bm7]being [A]alone at [G]night
[A] Yeah, I'm [Bm7]scared to [A/C#]death of [Bm7]heights
[A/C#] But I'm [D]not afraid to die
