Verse 1:
F Ab Db C
Itβs time I should be leaving, itβs time for me to go
F Db Eb
A painting on my ceiling and your footprints in the snow
F Ab Db C
They found you Christmas morning beneath the tree in the front yard
F
The sound, the screams, the mourning
Db Eb
As we send sympathy cards
Chorus:
Ab
Hydrocodone acid-washed brain
Eb
A shame, a total loss
Db
They said that they did all they could
Db Eb
That boy's been dead since childhood
Ab
Leave me alone to analyze
Eb
The sour power of surprise
Db
A ticker out of time and whack
Eb E
Too young to die of heart attacks
