Bm A D G Blackout, am I better now? Bm A D G Bm A Dinner table yelling at the television D Getting high before noon G Your sister stole your pills again Bm Won't you ever learn a little? A Try and cut the cord, hit the lights D G See the space heater drying up the floorboards Bm A Offer nothing, never change D G Look inside us, all the same Bm A You'll find nothing you can save D G But try and stitch up grandpa's Tommy's
Bm A Blackout, am I better now? D G I saw my family off their face as I was graduating Bm A And that's how yeah, you pass it down D G Can't pretend like you wanted that Bm A Sit me down and give me the confessional D Stay together for the kid G Isn't that original? Never know Bm A I'll grow up and learn that we were poor D Money talks, but it never tells you G Love is more important (important) Bm A Nothing special, family name D G I'll never find the will to change Bm A And if I could, I would stay the same Bm A Blackout, am I better now? D G I saw my family off their face as I was graduating Bm A And that's how yeah, you pass it down D G Hereditary, maybe see if I grow into something Bm So now it's bottles breaking A See the whole house is shaking D G Let's open up, tear down the walls and sink into the basement Bm A And that's how yeah, you pass it down D G Can't pretend like you wanted that You pass it down Bm A D G Always selfish, still the same Bm A Maybe I've been in the way D G Don't cast shame, oh, I'm so sorry Bm A Blackout, am I better now? D G I saw my family off their face as I was graduating Bm A And that's how yeah, you pass it down D G Hereditary, maybe see if I grow into something Bm So now it's bottles breaking A See the whole house is shaking D G Let's open up, tear down the walls and sink into the basement Bm A And that's how yeah, you pass it down D G Can't pretend like you wanted that You pass it down Bm Now it's bottles breaking A The whole house is shaking D See it's bad foundation G Oh, you've grown complacent Bm Now it's bottles breaking A The whole house is shaking D G So just have one but don't have trust or any conversations
