E                  A            
  I was feeling a little bizarre
B                 C#m             E
 The day that I buried my family car
         A                  B     C#m 
In the scrapmetal wrecking yard

E                  A
 And I've said so many goodbyes
       B             C#m         B
In the 25 years that I've been alive
     E           A                   B      E
And I don't know why this one was so hard


     A                   E            
And everytime when I go back to my apartment
B                      C#m
All I wanna do is get stoned
     A                              E
And I'm sick and tired of blacking out on my carpet
     B
And waking up all on my own

So I brought you home

E                        A
You started falling apart
    B                     C#m
6 months after you moved in
              E                  A
And I shoulda known from the start
        B                    E
That things would be different

E                     A
 It's not something that I can fix
   B                   C#m         B
If I could do anything you know I would
         E                      A
If this f*cking vacation would come to an end
       B                     E
Maybe then you'd be normal again


A                      E
Last week when I went back to my apartment
B                     C#m
 You were lookin' so stoned
     A                       E
The day after Christmas you acted so different
          B
You just wanted to be on your own
   A                       E
So I bought you medicine, went to the vet and
       B                      C#m
Cashed all of my savings and loans
A                    B
     But it was too late. You were letting go...



 E                A               B                C#m        B

                  And nothing I say  will make it ok  You just sleep in the heat and repeat  You're wasting a-
Woaaah - ohohohooohhhh    -    ohohohooohhhhh      -      ohohohoooohhhh      -     oooohhh

Woaaah -    ohohohooohhhh          -          ohohohooohhhhh - ohohoh

C#m                          B                           E   
Look at me or talk to me or tell me what's happening to you
oooohhhh         -          oooohhh


A                 E
Yesterday I went back to my apartment
    B                         C#m
To see how you've been holding up
     A                       E
You hadn't been eating, I thought you were sleeping, but...
B
  You're not waking up
   A                          E
I want you to know thay I'd spend every bit of my
 B                   C#m 
Pitiful savings and loans 
A                    B
