P.M.
[Verse 1]
C Am
I knew a boy once, when I was small
C
A towhead blond, with eyes of salt
Am
He played the drum in the marching band
C Am
His parents cared more about the Bible
C
Than being good to their own child
Am
He wore long sleeves cuz of his dad
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Am
And somehow we fell out of touch
Fmaj7 Am
Hope he took his bad deal and made a royal flush
Fmaj7 Am
Don't know if I'll see you again someday
G G6 G7 C
But if you're out there, I hope that you're okay
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
C Am
My middle school friend grew up alone
C
She raised her brothers on her own
Am
Her parents hated who she loved
C Am
She couldn't wait to go to college
C
She was tired cuz she was brought
Am
Into a world where family was merely blood
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Am
Does she know how proud I am she was created
Fmaj7 Am
With the courage to unlearn all of their hatred
Fmaj7 Am
We don't talk much but I just gotta say
G G6 G7 C
"I miss you, and I hope that you're okay"
[Bridge]
C Am
Address the letters, to the holes in my butterfly wings
C Am Dm
Nothing's forever, nothing's as good as it seems
Fmaj7
And when the clouds won't iron out
C
And the monsters creep into your house
G
And every door is hard to close
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Am
Well I hope you know how proud I am you were created
Fmaj7 Am
With the courage to unlearn all of their hatred
Fmaj7 Am
God, I hope that you're happier today
G G6 G7 C
"Cuz I love you, and I hope that you're okay"
[Outro]
