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
