VERSE 1 [Emadd9-D9-Cadd9-D9]
a mother wasted her tears
for a son who never cared
and a life that wasn't there
poorly she has faired

she brought it on herself
her own private hell
like a zombie in a spell
it's hard to sell

[Am-D]
and so he's never coming in back
until it's time for the final act

CHORUS
and I guess
             C-D  G
and he'll be over it
before too long
C   D   G
you can bet

     C
it's sad, but it's true
          Am
no matter whatcha do
         C-D  G
he'll be over it

VERSE 2
and so I tell another tale
of a broken hearted heart
how it got to be that way
how it all fell apart

they say it's too damn hard
to deal with such a pain
but he's got a secret on his side
he's impervious to complain

there's nothing up his sleeve
just a cold hard way to believe
