[Intro]
[C7M/F] [Dm] [F7M/A] [C/G]
[Dm] [E]
[Verse 1]
[F5]You pray for quiet,
[Bdim/F]inside your head the screams won't silence,
[F5]I remember those days.[Dmadd11/G][Em/G][G5]
[Verse 2]
[F5]The terror past our home,
[Bdim/F]the fear that's in your bones,
[F5]it just won't go away, no.[Dm][E]
[Verse 3]
[F5]The strangle holds,
the insulting names[G5],
[A5]the wound up shirt around his fist,
the nose to nose beer stinki[G5]ng breat[F5]h.
[Verse 4]
[F5]Throw down on to the floor,
so battered, bruis[G5]ed, and so[A5]re,
[A5]choke down on the truth of it,
[G5]and touch it until you break your neck.
[Chorus]
[F5]Hell's where I [E5]was [D5]born,
hell's where I [C5]was rai[A5]sed,
this Hell is where [C5]I'm f[G5]rom,
and this Hell is where [C5]I'll [F5]stay.
[F5]The hush is all [E5]I ne[D5]ed,
to hush the [C5]mise[A5]ry,
the hush that belongs [C5]to [G5]me,
like the hush inside [C5]of dre[F5]ams.
[F5]Just be still [E5]and [D5]pray,
and let the noise just fade away.[Dm][E]
[Verse 5]
[F5]Retain the violence,
[Bdim/F]atop your heart like a secret closet,
[F5]so no one can penetrate.[Dmadd11/G][Em/G][G5]
[Verse 6]
[F5]You just can't stand the touch,
[Bdim/F]affection weighs to much,
[F5]you push everyone away[Dm], from.[E]..
[Verse 7]
[F5]The reckoning, the bitter st[G5]ings,
[A5]whipped so bad I psed myself,
still with a beating [G5]stub held [F5]belt.
[Verse 8]
[F5]If this reminds you of home,
you better know you're [G5]not al[A5]one,
[A5]hold the gun up to my head,
[G5]I'll pull the trigger on myself.
[Chorus]
[F5]Hell's where I [E5]was [D5]born,
hell's where I [C5]was rai[A5]sed,
this Hell is where [C5]I'm f[G5]rom,
and this Hell is where [C5]I'll [F5]stay.
[F5]The hush is all [E5]I ne[D5]ed,
to hush the [C5]mise[A5]ry,
the hush that belongs [C5]to [G5]me,
like the hush inside [C5]of dre[F5]ams.
[F5]Just be still [E5]and [D5]pray...[D5][C5][D5][C5]
[Bridge]
[D#5]These are the [F5]memories, in [G5]me,
[G5]you didn't want to know,
[A#5]you didn't want to know.
[D#5]These are the [F5]memories, we k[G5]eep,
[G5]we dont't want to show,
[A#5]we dont't want to show,
[C5]By now you need to know,
you're not alone[D5].
[Pre-Chorus]
[C7M/F]Hush is all I need,
[Dm]hush the misery,
[F7M/A]hush that belongs to me,
[C/G]like the hush inside of dreams.
