[Em] [C]
[Em]Staring at the sidewalk,[C] there's a crack in which a flower grows
[G]reminded me of somebody [B7]not hangin' around here anymore
[Em]and everything is so pre[C]tty/pretty fked up, obviously
[G]when you call me from the other[B7] side to tell me everything is fine
[Em]and I will always love ev[C]en when your eyes are fading
[G]and if they catch you, I will save you, I wi[B7]ll get you out
[Em]And this, what about th[C]is?
[G]is it anything at al[B7]l, is it a growing cancer in your heart
[Em]and this life...I don't[C] have a clue
[G]but when they told you not t[B7]o worry, didn't it bother you?
[Am]well all that's very[D] nice but this is still a [G]song against life

[Em]He goes out in the kitchen,[C] he goes there every second
and your plastic f[G]ather said:

[Em]and went out for a lover
or a new [C]world to discover
