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