Tom: F
F C
If I ever get to Heaven, gonna walk up to his desk and say
Bb F
"Got a couple questions Wonder whether you can answer me
F C
You put everything together Yeah, you made me just the way I am
Bb F
If you're a lover that can tell me, then please help me understand"
[Chorus]
F C
Why you put good into my heart
Bb F
Then tease me with evil since the day I was born?
F C
Guilty and confused, I ripped myself apart
Bb F
When you always knew I'd be a civil war
F C Bb F
That I'd be a civil war, mmmmm, that I'd be a civil war, mmmmm
F C Bb F
What'd you make me that way for, mmmmm, That I'd be a civil war, mmmmmm
[Verse 2]
F C
Now I've been living with my demons They've been eating at me every day
Bb F
I like chains 'round my neck Most nights get the best of me
F C
And I'm ashamed, I'm amazed, I'm afraid of the wicked I need
Bb F
And I'm sure there's silver lining, and I'm trying, but I cannot see
[Chorus]
F C
Why you would put good into my heart
[Bridge]
Bb C
Cause damn it, I'm tired and I wanna change
A Dm
But you put it right into my DNA
Bb C
So just for one evening, I curse your name
A Dm G
And ask why the hell do You do this to me?
[Chorus]
Gm C
Why would you put, why would you put
F C
Why you would put good into my heart
