F G
Back in '99
After Columbine
Am C
I had the strangest dream
F G
Liquid angels swam thru the halls of
Am C
Waretown Elementary
F G
Teaching us little hicks new ways to exist
Am C
New ways to see
F G
Way out there in the dark space
Am C
Between the galaxies
F G
My friend Jimmy was sitting next to me
Am C
Then suddenly he was not
F
And when they got to me
G
Asked if I believed
Am C
I said "believe in what?"
F G
Then I woke up
[Chorus]
F G
Mama take me mallwalking
F G
You know that I'm an empty kid
F G
You buy me stuff to try and fill me up
A
But I think I am bottomless
[Verse]
F G
All the daddies drive every Friday night
Am C
Way out past oyster creek
F
Put their pickup trucks
G
In a semicircle
Am C
Pass the pints of rye whiskey
F G
With the ghosts of original people
Am C
Dancing in halogen blue
F G
Then I came to
[Chorus 2]
F G
Mama takes me mallwalking
F G
She knows that I'm an empty kid
F G
She buys me stuff to fill me up
A
But I think I am bottomless
F G
Mama sing a song to me
F G
When it's time to put the dog to sleep
F G
You are strong when we are weak
A
Keep the name tags on your key ring
