[Intro]
G C
G C G
G C G D

[Verse 1]
             C   
I waited for love
               G  D
With a cricket bat
             C   
I got what I want
                G   D
And I kicked it flat

[Pre-Chorus]
                  C   
You know what I'm like
You don't deserve it
       G   
Veruca Salt
            D    
Her just desserts
            C  
She kept it out
To show the world
             G                   D
And now it's sour like her mother

[Chorus]
            C                        
What do you do when a good man cries?
G              C                           G
And you're the one to keep him up at night?
G             C                                                     G  D
How could you do what you said you wouldn't do like all the other guys?
G          C                             
How do you act when the daddy's not home?
G      C                            G
Dorian Graying if the door's closed?
G            C                                                                  G D
All that you say, it doesn't matter 'cause you're crushing what you shouldn't hold

[Verse 2]
                C   
I hope it don’t last
                 G   D
With our time so sore
              C   
I hope that I pass
            G   D
And I get reborn

[Pre-Chorus]
           C      
I've never changed
But lord, I'm tryna
             G   
The people’s mess
           D  
Dunboyne Diana
          Am                          
All of my jokes have turned to prayers
                G                             D
Because they're scarred just like their mother

[Chorus]
            C                        
What do you do when a good man cries?
G              C                           G
And you're the one to keep him up at night?
G             C                                                     G  D
How could you do what you said you wouldn't do like all the other guys?
G          C                             
How do you act when the daddy's not home?
G      C                            G
Dorian Graying if the door's closed?
G            C                                                                  G 
All that you say, it doesn't matter 'cause you're crushing what you shouldn't hold
          D   
Shouldn't hold

[Outro]
Em                    D                       
Oh, I can feel what I hated in dreams, come on
Em                    D                         Em  
Oh, give me a hand if you can help, Jesus, it's time
          D            
To be real, spin wheels
    C        
Kyrie Eleison
Em                    D                     Em
Oh, I can feel what I hated in dreams, help me
                         D                  Em      
Not hate myself, help me love other people, oh, I'll
              D          
Wear the beads, I'll read
    C        
Kyrie Eleison
Kyrie Eleison
