                  Bm                                  E  
Tell it to her softly and hold her if she cries  
                  A                                    F#m

That I won?t be coming home again 
E                                    A  
I got in too deep with strangers  
        E                                 A  
Thinkin? they could help me find my way  
   D                                       A  
Nobody warned me of the dangers  
       F#m                   Bm                                          E  
And it?s always the young and foolish that have to pay

So break it to them gently when you tell my mom and dad  
              Bm                                            E  
Thank them for the good years and all the lovin? that I had  
        A                                      F#m
