My tea' s gone cold, I' m wonderin' why
G D Em
Got out of bed at all

The morning rain clouds up my window
G D Em
And I can' t see at all

And even if I could it' ll all be gray
G D Em
But your picture on my wall
C C#m
It reminds me that it' s not so bad
G D Em

Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain' t callin
G D Em
I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
C D
I sent two letters back in Autumn, you must not have got ' em
G D
There probably was a problem with the post office or somethin'
Em C D
Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot ' em
G D Em
But anyway, what' s been up man, how' s your daughter?
C
My girlfriend' s pregnant too, I' m bout to be a father
C#m C
If I have a daughter, guess what I' m a call her
Em
I' m a name her Bonnie
C
I read about your Uncle Ronnie too, I' m sorry
D G D Em
I had a friend kill himself over some b**** who didn' t want him
C D
I know you probably hear this every day, but I' m your biggest fan
G D Em
I even got that underground s*** that you did with Skam
C D
I got a room full of your posters and your pictures man
G D Em
I like that s*** you did with Rawkus too, that s*** was phat
C
Anyways, I hope you get this man, hit me back

Dear Slim, you still ain' t called or wrote, I hope you have a chance,
D G Em
I ain' t mad, I think it' s just f***** up that you don' t answer fans
C
If you didn' t wanna talk to me outside your concert
D G D
You didn' t have to, but you could' ve signed an autograph for Matthew
Em C
That' s my little brother man, he' s only six years old
D
We waited in the blistering cold for you
G D Em
For four hours and you just said no
C
That' s pretty s****y man, you' re like his f***ing idol
C#m C Em
He wants to be just like you man, he likes you more than I do
C
I ain' t that mad though, I just don' t like being lied to
D G D
Remember when we met in Denver, you said if I write you
Em C
You would write back, see I' m just like you in a way
D
I never knew my father neither
G D Em
He used to always cheat on my mom and beat her
C
I can relate to what you' re saying in your songs
D G D
So when I have a s****y day, I drift away and put em on
Em C
Cause I don' t really got s*** else, so that s*** helps when I' m depressed
C#m C
I even got a tattoo of your name across the chest
Em C
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
D G D
Its like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me
Em C
See everthing you say is real, and I respect you cause you tell it
D G D
My girlfriend' s jealous, because I talk about you 24/7
Em C
But she don' t know you like I know you slim, no one does
D G D
She don' t know what it was like for people like us growin' up
Em C
You gotta call me man, I' ll be the biggest fan you' ll ever lose
C#m
Sincerely yours, Stan, p.s.
C
We should be together too

Dear Mr I' m-Too-Good-To-Call-Or-Write-My-Fans
G D
This' ll be the last package I ever send your a**
Em
It' s been six months and still no words
C
I don' t deserve it
D
I know you got my last two letters
G D
I wrote the addresses on them perfect
Em C
So this is my cassette I' m sending you, I hope you hear it
D G D
I' m in the car right now, I' m doin' 90 on the freeway
Em C C#m
Hey Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, dare me to drive?
C
You know that song by Phil Collins, In the Air of the Night
Em C
About that guy who could' ve saved that other guy from drowning
D G D
But didn' t, but Phil saw it all, then at a show he found him
Em C
That' s kinda how this is, you could' ve rescued me from drowning
D G D
Now it' s too late, I' m on a 1,000 downers now, I' m drowsy
Em C
And all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call
D G D
I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off my wall
Em C C#m
I love you Slim, we could' ve been together, think about it
C Em
You ruined it now, I hope you can' t sleep and you dream about it
C
And when you dream, I hope you can' t sleep and you scream about it
D G D Em
I hope your conscience eats at you and you can' t breathe without me
C
See Slim, shut up b****, I' m trying to talk
D G D
Hey Slim, that' s my girlfriend screamin' in the trunk
Em C
But I didn' t slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain' t like you
D G D Em
Cause if she suffocates, she' ll suffer more, then she' ll die too
C C#m
Well, gotta go, I' m almost under the bridge now
C
Oh s***, I forgot, how am I supposed to send this s*** out?
Em C D
My tea' s gone cold, I' m wonderin' why
G D Em
Got out of bed at all
