CAPO 6:
C C F C
Hey, it's not lectures you care about
C F C
I think we're similar sometimes
F C D7
I've spent my whole life trying not to grow to what you have become
C F C
It's gotten harder to celebrate
C F C
And even harder to think, "Hey man"
Em Am D7
Red Dog's down by the river would have been so god damn fun
F C
You weren't born a bastard father
F C
But you birthed an innocent son
F C
You were given proper water
G F
To cleanse him from a world you will create
VERSE 2:
C F C
Why's it so god damn hard to think about
C F C
You and all your demands
C F C D7
Coming back with a master plan, no guts to stick around
C F C F C
If superstition really existed, I'd be one of many haunts
Em Am D7
I don't want to but I will if I have to
C F C
I've crawled and stumbled over this name
F C Em-Am D7
I know I watched him fake it, told to love, not the same
C F C F C
It's getting harder and harder to recognize all the things that I once loved
Em Am
Now you are clinging to the alter
D7
To find I'm not who I always was
F C
You weren't born a bastard father
F C
But you birthed an innocent son
F C
You were given proper water
G F
To cleanse him from a world you will create (To cleanse him from a man he could become)
VERSE 3:
C F C
Such greenery landscape covers your mind
C F C
Fall until another woman hits your life
F C D7
She ain't worth nothing cause she just doesn't care
C F C Em Am D7
The drugs they weren't enough, you're probably dumb enough to say a prayer
C F C C F C
You stole from the government, but nobody really cares
Em Am D7
And somehow I get stuck with information to make me more aware
C F C F C
It's getting harder and harder to recognize all the things that I once loved
Em Am
Now you are clinging to the alter
D7
To find I'm not who I always was
F C
You weren't born a bastard father
F C
But you birthed an innocent son
F C
You were given proper water
G F C
To cleanse him from a world you will create
