I share your hate for this world 
we're in
                  Bm
But it makes me a better man
                        G
It's an excuse that you make

I know you want to let the bottles 
in
                              Bm
I know you think that they're all 
your friends
                               G
They're lying straight to your face

      Em
And I know
          A             G
About the devil in your bloodstream
      Em
And I know
         A                  G
That the ghosts still visit nightly
Em
And I know
            A             G
It must get lonely by the Chesapeake

               A
Are you really afraid of death
               Bm
Or do you just say it if
                        G
It's the right thing to say?

D
Madelyn
                             A
I know you're safe where you lay 
your head
                     Bm
But if you wanted to come back
                           G
I've got a place you could stay

Em
If I'm not
      A
Doing right
      G
By my family
     Em
Then what's
    A           G
The point of it anyway?
     F#m  Em
Of this anyway?

                        D
I don't think there's a god
                           A
I don't think that there's someone 
coming to save us
      Bm                           
And I don't think that's the worst 
           G
news of the day

                        D
I don't think there's a god
                           A
I don't think that there's someone 
coming to save me
      Bm                           
And I don't think that's the worst

                A
I know how your cold scars turn 
purple
               Bm
I know how the Irish goodbyes feel
                    G
I know where you've been

    D
And Madelyn
                   A
You and I got this East Coast blood 
between us
     Bm
It's bitter and vitriolic
              G
I know how it ends
       Em        A           G
If I'm not doing right by my family
          Em        A        G
Well, I'm not doing right by family
