jesse and i were not looking so pretty
   Bm                  Fm
we hadn't been well in awhile
   Bm                       Fm
we ran out of cash and they ran out of pity
    Bm                              Fm
our demeanor lacked what you'd call style
Bm                      Fm
alone in my room with a 100 watt lightbulb
    Bm                         Fm

    Bm            Fm
i'm scrapin' bags double-boilin' cottons
    Bm                    Fm

your dad doesn't know what you are
Bm                     Fm
instead of a habit you should have a hobby
Bm                       Fm
like barbie or bubblegum cards
Em

         A
