Intro
[Em]
Verse 1
[Em]Momma was a bit naive, and her daddy was a blinded thief
He went and stole a[D]way what
was left of the remains of a fami[Em]ly
[Em]She'd hide away behind a door she kept locked
[G]But the walls weren't thick enough to block out
[Em]Angry noises of the voices that once soothed her to sleep
Chorus
[C]And she lies tonight
[G]Underneath the caving [G]roof
[D]And she cries tonight
[Em]Wondering what she can [D]do
[C]And she tries tonight
[G]Remembering who she once knew
[D]But they've died inside
[Em]Another empty [D]bottle takes a [C]life
Verse 2
[Em]This world can be so cruel
[G]She lives her life as a broken tool
[D]And she believes she's unable to fix this broken ma[Em]chine
[Em]And what's the use to throw yourself at love
[G]If in the end it never seems enough
[D]To be able to get through all of life's broken [Em]dreams
[C]She watched her father live in regret
[G]Heard her mother cry in an empty bed
[D]And she swears this is the best life [C]gets
Chorus
[C]And she lies tonight
[G]Underneath the caving [G]roof
[D]And she cries tonight
[Em]Wondering what she could [D]do
[C]And she tries tonight
[G]but she's out of memories that she once knew
[D]And she dies inside
[Em]Another empty [D]bottle takes a [C]life
Bridge
[C]And every little bit, every little
bit of her wants to see the light [G]
Oh, but every single night
another little bit of her dies in[D]side [Em]
[D]She's trapped in her mind
[C]She feels more alive, she feels more alive
[G]In her own dreams
And she's wondering what's beyond
the sky, could she see the [D]light
If she [C]falls asleep?
Oh, cause she feels more alive in her own [Em]dreams [D] [C]
Chorus
[C]So tonight she lies
[G]Lifted up through her own roof
[D]Dried eyes tonight
[Em]There's nothing more that she could [D]do
[C]And they cry tonight
[G]A daughter that they hardly knew
[D]And she's lost in time
[Em]Another empty [D]bottle takes a [C]life
