Tabbed by Drew Langworthy Tuned half a step down G5 E5 G5 E5 My mom'd give me twenty and say "Stay out till dawn" C5 A5 C5 G5 When her boyfriend was over and they wanted me gone G5 E5 G5 E5 I would walk through the woods to the old graveyard C5 A5 C5 G5 E5 And roll my own tops and think two kinda thoughts C5 E5 Are we high enough to clear these trees?

D5 I don't know C5 G5 Grocery stores in the middle of the night shine their own kinda light C5 G5 High school halls and shopping malls never fit me right C5 D5 But my heart would swing free like a lasso from my hand C5 D5 When I'd hear that sound and put the pedal down G5 E5 G5 E5 I wound up that fall in a hospital C5 A5 C5 G5 E5 On the suicide wing with a lot of people thinkin' one thing G5 E5 G5 E5 They had a sign on the wall that said "No touching at all" C5 A5 C5 G5 E5 There were screams in the dark, nurses running down the hall G5 E5 G5 E5 On the night that I got there, they showered me and searched me hard C5 A5 C5 G5 E5 Then they took me to my little room overlooking a graveyard G5 E5 G5 E5 When I opened my eyes I was strapped to the bed C5 A5 C5 G5 E5 There was a needle in my arm , part of me was gone G5 E5 G5 E5 Then they took us outside in our slippers and gowns C5 A5 C5 G5 E5 To play basketball on the blacktop, the ball just bounced till it stopped C5 E5 Are we high enough to clear these trees?
