Verse 1:
     G                                Em
Well everything’s so different now, a scream which fills the air
    G                                    Em
And haunts the smallest children’s sleep,   upon the floor
       G                                           Em
“Where have they gone?"; You’ll hear them say with smiles meant to cry
        G                                   Em
As they wind a watch wrapped on a wrist and quickly look away
    G                                    Em
And four and six have come and gone five times before they’re seen
     G                          Em
And upon the lips of everyone a curse they’ve never dreamed
       C               Asus2      Em
Yeah, upon the lips of everyone a curse they’ve never dreamed


Chorus:
       G               Em
It’s a complicated situation
       G               Em
It’s a complicated situation, mamma
       G              Em
I'm a complicated situation

Verse 2:
    G                                Em
The young must be our sacrifice they say with crippled grins
    G                                     Em
The eyes of youth must lose their way and stumble here within
       G                               Em
So the sleeping children were awoke in time to haze their eyes
          G                                     Em  
So it was never known on which they choked with books of old in time
          C              Asus2                  Em
So it was never known on which they choked with books of old in time


Chorus:
       G               Em
It’s a complicated situation
       G               Em
It’s a complicated situation, mamma
       G              Em
I'm a complicated situation
