        Cm
   Dear darling,
        G#      Cm
   your mom, my friend
            G#          Cm
   left a message on my machine
            G#
   she was frantic
                    G
   saying you were talking crazy

   That you wanted to do away with yourself
   guess she thought I would be the perfect resort
   because we've had this inexplicable connection since our youth

   And yes, they re in shock
   they are panicked
   you and your chronic
   them and their drama
   you this embarassment
   us in the middle of this delusion

  CHORUS:
     Em          C
  If we were our bodies,
     Em          C
  If we were our futures
     G           D   
  If we were our defences
                 A      (don t forget "THE A THING" here)
  I d be joining you.

   .........
   .........
   .........it goes the same way till the end
