[Verse 1]
Em Bm
Don't you know how hard this has to be?
D A
Just because I'm growing old don't mean I wasn't seen.
Em Bm
2,040 days ago, just a horny dream,
D A
when your cousin died you told me of the dangling angels feet.
[Pre-Chorus]
G D G D A
And mom and all the things you said and all the plans you made
G D G D A A
gonna be okay and you're the one to blame.
[Chorus]
Em Bm Em Bm
And at the dark goodbye where were signs of life
Em Bm Em Bm
like an empty wife with bedroom eyes.
[Verse 2]
Em Bm
It must have been an exception to the alpha great I am
D A
'cause in the laundry room I saw my father's head down in his hands.
Em Bm
B pool collecting drops that fell along his shimmered brow.
D A
He said: I said I'd never tell you, might as well just tell you now.
[Pre-Chorus]
G D G D A
And he said: son, no matter what you do, how often it's done,
G D G D A A
I am the rock beneath that you see in the sun.
[Chorus]
Em Bm Em Bm
And at my dark divide are you on my side
Em Bm Em Bm Bm
like a tempted wife with an empty smile .
[Verse 3]
Em Bm
And ask the great deceiver it never meant to follow fear,
D A
it is the moment that we meet, the king and finally find out
Em Bm
what we're doing here. So, father do we go to heaven or to hell.
D A
Does fire and damnation start with an embryonic cell?
Em Bm
B rope that we can never throw in long enough to actually grab
A Bm
and if that is the case then is my premature kid in the well?
[Ending]
G D G D A
Just forever looking up, wondering if we can come up
G D G D A
with another plan? To save the eternal daMN -
G
nation's going to [Outro] hell
[Outro]
