Tom: C

F
C
Make a cup with your hands to take a drink
C
F
C
In the same way that your father did
C
F
C
And throw a stone upon the river's lid
F7M
Watch the circles take you home
C
F
C
Blow the smoke and watch it leave your lungs
C
F
C
And high or not, think of what you've done
C
F
C
Have you not considered life beneath the thumb?
F7M
Or flying solo in your home?
C
F
C
'Cause sometimes it's who, not what you do
C
F
C
Just because your father did doesn't mean that you should too
C
F
C
I don't want to lose you
F7M
Don't go away from here
C
F
It's that sinking feeling of being alone
G
Am
And it's the way it makes you screech
C
F
And pulls the skin off your bones
G
Am
And I can't help but think, as I pick my mouth off the floor;
C
F
Will you still know me in a year?
C
F
C
Don't you think about your actions?
C
F
C
Counter-weight dire reactions?
C
F
C
Zero soul, you're a loser's son
F7M
But don't you go away from here
C
F
C
Your mind's a mine-field in a minor way
C
F
C
Don't just fall in like some mindless stray
C
F
C
"We're your friends, you see" is what they say
F7M
Don't you go away from here
C
F
Yeah, it's that sinking feeling of being alone
G
Am
And it's the way it makes you screech
C
F
And pulls the skin off your bones
G
Am
And I can't help but think, as I pick my mouth off the floor;
C
F
Will you still know me in a year?
(Pause)
C
F
Yeah, it's that sinking feeling of being alone
G
Am
And it's the way it makes you screech
C
F
And peels the skin off your bones
G
Am
And I can't help but think, as I pick my mouth off the floor;
C
F
Will you still know me in a year?
