[G]
[D] How can it happen?
[G] Every [D] time
You ask us this question
[G] The answer seems like a lie
[D] No one was saying
[G] No, we [D] mean
[Bm] And it's always sincere God knows but it [G] never gets through the way you need
[D] Before you were born someone kicked in the door
[G] There's no place for you here
Stay back where you [D] belong
Before you were born someone kicked in the door
[G] You're not wanted here
[D] Goddamn the people
[G] Left you in pain
[D] Goddamn the father
[G] Without a face, without a name
[D] Goddamn the lovers
[G] Who never showed up
[B] Goddamn the wounds
Sure how [G] deep a wound can cut
[D] Before you were born someone kicked in the door
[G] There's no place for you here
Stay back where you [D] belong
Before you were born someone kicked in the door
[G] You're not wanted here Stay back
[E] [Em] [Bm]
[E] [D]
[E] [F#] [A]
[G] [D] And how can it happen?
[G] That you know the cause
[D] Nothing is changing
[G] Everything is wrong
[D] Pain is the healing
[G] And the tears don't like alcohol
[Bm] Just keep on there breathing
We'll help you [G] down
Long, long road back [D] home
Before you were born someone kicked in the [G] door
There's no place for you here
Stay back where you [D] belong
Before you were born someone kicked in the door
[G] You're not wanted here anymore
[D]
[G] [D]
[G] [D] Before you were born someone kicked in the [G] door
There's no place for you here
Stay back where you [D] belong
Before you were born someone kicked in the [G] door
You're not wanted here Stay back
And how can it happen?
[D] That you know the cause
[G] Everything is wrong
We'll help you down
Long, [D] long road back home
Before you were born someone kicked in the [G] door
We'll help you down
The long [D] road
