eats low carb ice cream with his mum
               G5                     F5              G5

F5
trash can on the floor, a pitiful disaster
A5                                             G5
cried to sleep at night when he never got it right
            F5                         G5
cos he never realised, it doesn't even matter

later on in life he's drowning in his laughter

asteroids, pacman written on his 'games to get' list

wasted nights spent up in his bedroom
         G5                F5                    G5

in his world girlfriend's don't exist
      G5                  F5                G5
