Tom: C
Dm Am
Don't you know how hard this has to be?
C G
Just because I'm growing old don't mean I wasn't seen.
Dm Am
2,040 days ago, just a horny dream,
C G
when your cousin died you told me of the dangling angels feet.
[Pre-Chorus]
F C F C G
And mom and all the things you said and all the plans you made
F C F C G G
gonna be okay and you're the one to blame.
[Chorus]
Dm Am Dm Am
And at the dark goodbye where were signs of life
Dm Am Dm Am
like an empty wife with bedroom eyes.
[Verse 2]
Dm Am
It must have been an exception to the alpha great I am
C G
'cause in the laundry room I saw my father's head down in his hands.
Dm Am
A pool collecting drops that fell along his shimmered brow.
C G
He said: I said I'd never tell you, might as well just tell you now.
[Pre-Chorus]
F C F C G
And he said: son, no matter what you do, how often it's done,
F C F C G G
I am the rock beneath that you see in the sun.
[Chorus]
Dm Am Dm Am
And at my dark divide are you on my side
Dm Am Dm Am Am
like a tempted wife with an empty smile .
[Verse 3]
Dm Am
And ask the great deceiver it never meant to follow fear,
C G
it is the moment that we meet, the king and finally find out
Dm Am
what we're doing here. So, father do we go to heaven or to hell.
C G
Does fire and damnation start with an embryonic cell?
Dm Am
A rope that we can never throw in long enough to actually grab
G Am
and if that is the case then is my premature kid in the well?
[Ending]
F C F C G
Just forever looking up, wondering if we can come up
F C F C G
with another plan? To save the eternal daMN -
F
nation's going to [Outro] hell
[Outro]
