Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

When I was just a little girl my mother said to me

Just before she tucked me into bed

As she leaned in close I felt her lips upon my cheek

And softly these six words are what she said

You're gonna suffer for my sins

You're gonna suffer for my sins

There Is no escaping this it comes from deep within

You're Gonna Suffer for my sins

Predictably these cursed words did haunt me everyday

No matter what no matter where I hid

 I spent my years believing that there was no other way

but suffering and sufferings what I did

Oh yes I suffered for her sins

That's right I suffered for her sins

There Is no escaping this it comes from deep within

And now I suffer for her sins

Solo

[strum once each chord]

30 years have passed since momma brought me to this world

 That's 30 years spent trapped inside this shell

 And nobody believes me they think I'm a foolish girl

 But there are many different kinds of hell

[strum normal]

And now I suffer for her sins

Oh yes I suffer for her sins

There is no escaping this it comes from deep within

And so I suffer for her sins

Oh now I suffer for her sins

Oh yes I suffer for her sins

There is no escaping this it comes from deep within

And so I suffer for her sins

Oh yes I suffer for her sins
