intro : G ( a few times )

G Em D C

D

G Em
staring out the window in somebodys pick up truck ,
D C
well i never mind the boredom cause i use i for a crutch ,
G Em
just to get me to that plane its a different state of sane ,
D C
and every time i try to change i always end out quite the same ,
G Em D C
thinking back to happier days everyone was ignorant and all the kids behaved ,
G Em
but me , my friends , and the ice cream man ,
D
that was our existence ,
C
that was our clan ,
D
this one goes out to the friends i never had!

G Bm D C
hey i don’t understand ( but i’d like to anyway )
G Bm D C
hey i don’t understand ( but i like it anyway )
G Bm D C
hey i don’t understand ( but i like you anyway )

D . . .

G Em
shelter in the city we decided to go in ,
D C
and i gave a man some money to buy us heroin ,
G Em
the homeless man returned and he gave me back a dime , he said ,
D C
“put it in your sock my friend and save it for another time , ”
G Em
lessons are learned and later unlearned ,
D
and if he knew what he knows now ,
C
well he could rule the world ,
G
but i’m not one to judge ,
Em
what happened yesterday ,
D C
cause i got me , i got myself , my future is at stake .
D
this one goes out to the friends i never had!
