The cops are pretty skeptical

From what I've seen, that's what you get

They said they're busy with the carnival

But agreed to do a wellness check

Dm                         C
When they said that you're okay

They sounded almost entertained
Dm                         C
They said you had some funny friends

They can be passed down through the family

It's nice to know there's someone in this world
               F
Who's always known me

Who's always known me

🎸 Verse 3:
Dm                    C
The fish tank, it was always meant
F            Bb
To be a temporary home
Bb                        Am
The boundaries, they were well defined
Gm                  F
The climate, it was in control
      C                  Am
That year you spent all shot between
Dm            Bb
Mania and doubled down

Who's always known me
     Dm                    C
It's nice to know there's someone in this world

🎸 Verse 4:
Dm                       C
Now that both our folks have passed
F                      Bb
It's hard to feel real tied to much
Bb                   Am
The bandage and the broken glass
Gm                    F
The weak attempts to keep in touch
    C                    Am
I heard you have some funny friends
         Dm               Bb                 F
And it's always someone's birthday in your building

The parties at your parents house
      F                C                  F
Where everything was neat and sweet, and normal
              Bb                        F
Anthony, it's hard to think about the sharks
               C               F
That must be swimming in your circle
              Dm                    C
Anthony, it's nice to know there's someone in this world
               F      Dm  C
Who's always known me

Who's always known me
