There's a picture on my kitchen wall

Looks like Jesus and his friends involved

There's a party getting started in the yard

Parked in the drive

By the pool last night, apparently

The chemicals weren't mixed properly

And then you woke up at the bottom by the drain
Cm chordCm Eb chordEb F chordF
And now your altitude and memory's a shame
------------------------------------------------------------
Bb chordBb Cm chordCm Dm chordDm Cm chordCm
What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
Bb chordBb Cm chordCm
With a little bit more of innocence
Dm chordDm Cm chordCm Bb chordBb
I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young
D7 chordD7 Gm chordGm Ab chordAb
It's okay to be easily ignored

I?d like to believe it was all about

And when the house was left in shambles

Who was there to handle all the broken bits of glass

Or the other way around

It's kinda nice to work the floor since the divorce
Ab chordAb Cm chordCm Bb chordBb
I've been enjoying both my Christmases and my birthday cakes
Ab chordAb Cm chordCm Bb chordBb Dm chordDm
And taking drugs and making love at far too young an age
Ab chordAb
And they never check to see my grades
F chordF F7 chordF7
What a fool I'd be to start complaining now
------------------------------------------------------------
