Terrible Tommy by Ryan Horne
Terrible Tommy
[Verse]
Dm A
I've been up and down in prison, I've lived inside this cell
Gm Dm
Surrounded by these demons and the fiery gates of hell
Dm A
I blame my mother and my father for the man that I've become
Gm Dm
I was born into this family, I was born the devil's son
A Gm A Dm
No I aint gonna see my freedom until the day they lay me in the ground
[Chorus]
Bb Dm Bb Dm
It's such a hard way to fall, It's such a hard, a hard way to fall
Bb Dm A Dm
No I ain't gonna go to heaven, they have locked me in these walls
Bb A Dm
It's such a hard way to fall
[Verse]
Dm A
I got 20 years behind me, almost all that I can take
Gm Dm
I've built up this rage and anger, filled my soul with void and hate
Dm A
I got no hope left inside me, there ain't no joy left to give
Gm Dm
Cause I am just an animal to all my prison friends
A Gm A Dm
There ain't no good reason why I should still be alive today
[Chorus]
Bb Dm Bb Dm
It's such a hard way to fall, It's such a hard, a hard way to fall
Bb Dm A Dm
No I ain't gonna go to heaven, they have locked me in these walls

It's such a hard way to fall

No I ain't gonna go to heaven, they have locked me in these walls
