Son Of Shame


If you want to play it like they do on the recording, tune your guitar down a half step and transpose these chords up a half step. Eb Lookin' past the edge of moonlight, Ab Eb Hoping for the break of day. Eb Seein' only cracks in sidewalks, not Bb the paved city way. Eb Lookin' down this road to glory in a Ab Eb car designed to fail. Eb Breathin' cold winds of freedom Bb Eb while my mind remains in jail. (2x) Ab With a strong steady tailwind, all I Eb Bb see is pourin' rain. Ab A victim of a brutal mindset walks Eb Bb this lonely son of shame. Eb Because the grass is always Ab Cm greener, I will sit here in my pain. Eb Lookin' at the wealth around me. Ab Bb Eb Woe is me, this son of shame. Eb Well its pouring snow on the Ab outside, but all Im seeing is the Eb slush. Eb Looking at the wealth around me, Bb but just thinkin' I aint got much. Eb Im that man thats prone to worry Ab Eb in that far off glory land. Eb Who do I think Im kidding? No one Bb Eb cares or understands. Ab With a strong steady tailwind, all I Eb Bb see is pourin' rain. Ab A victim of a brutal mindset walks Eb Bb this lonely son of shame. Eb Because the grass is always Ab Cm greener, I will sit here in my pain. Eb Lookin' at the wealth around me. Ab Bb Eb Woe is me, this son of shame. Eb Ab And then I start to wonder about all Eb that Ive been through. Eb I opened up my eyes and see that Bb every day is new. Eb Ab I consider all my ways; the paths Cm that Ive pursued... Eb Ab Man, Im so ashamed as I sit here Bb Eb with a life misused. Ab With a mountain set before me all I Eb Bb see is victory. Ab But I know theres someone out Eb Bb there and His mind remains on me. Eb Says the Father over his children, "It Ab Cm was for you that I came. Eb Youre the apple of my eye, son, my Ab Bb Eb Ab precious son of shame... Eb Bb Eb Ab Eb Bb ...shame...son of shame...shame...son Eb of shame."
