Intro:
F    Ab  Db C
F    Db  Eb

Verse 1:
     F                              Ab             Db C
It’s time I should be leaving, it’s 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

{Verse 2}
     F                              Ab             Db C
I guess I should be going, there's nothing I can say
  F                               Db                Eb
To keep your dad from throwing up at least three times a day
     F                                       Ab                Db  C
They found you Christmas morning beneath the tree in the back yard
    F                                     Db              Eb
The pounding of your mother's fists while freezing in the car

Chorus:
Ab
Oxycodone 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

Bridge:
F    Db  Ab Eb F    Db  Eb

               F                Db     Ab
I'd kill for a drink, casket to carry,
    Eb     F                Db       Eb
Try not to think, about you dead and buried

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             Ab ring out
Too young to die of heart attacks
