Verse 1
E
E
G
G
I sat in the swamp with a little pink piggy
D
D
E
E
Who loved roller-skating and playing pretend
The boy that she loved
G
G
was a real snackmaster
D
D
The world was a beach ball
E
E
and we were all friends
G
G
Then he died alone and the last time I saw her
D
D
It looked like the reaper
E
E
had rapped on her door
She said "Do you remember
G
G
D
D
singing Ice Ice Baby with me
E
E
Laying down on the reef bathroom floor?"

Verse 2
E
E
G
G
Jimmy and Johnny just stare at each other
D
D
E
E
While their mother hangs in the Holiday Inn
G
G
Your funeral on your son's seventh birthday
D
D
E
E
Is the worst thing you could ever give him
G
G
I bet he'd like flowers, balloons, and a card
D
D
"Unconditionally yours,
E
E
all my love, from your mom"
G
G
Much more than wearing that little black suit
D
D
E
E
And saying goodbye forever to you

Verse 3
E
E
G
G
I haven't forgotten the times that I teased you
D
D
And everyone else pointed
E
E
at you and laughed
G
G
Permanent damage was not my intention
D
D
E
E
But I could not foresee the aftermath
E
E
E
E
E
E
of my actions
Bridge 1
E
E
I was so small

Wanted to grow in the eyes of my enemies
E
E
For awhile I felt tall

A
now I'm here on my knees
Verse 4
E
E
G
G
Looking at my face in a bed of pine needles
D
D
And wondering if anyone
E
E
stills knows my name
G
G
I turned full circle then another half circle
D
D
E
E
And tried to go back the same way
that I came
G
G
"Look alive, Dawson, your heels are dragging
D
D
E
E
I never knew anyone could move so slow
You may be a hotshot now,
G
G
but you are still a cow
D
D
E
E
A big fat F, why don't you just go home?"
Verse 5
E
E
I guess that that means
G
G
I did not make the team
D
D
I'll just lay on the ground
E
E
and look up at the trees
G
G
The old Bedford oak, the tall evergreens
D
D
E
E
This is not a joke, this is not a dream
G
G
Not sleeping, just resting in pieces
D
D
that I wish were peaches
E
E
I saw your dad later that day
Maybe he shot himself,
G
G
could've been someone else
D
D
E
E
Asked me to tell you what he had to say
Verse 6
E
E
"You don't have to end up
G
G
with people who self destruct
D
D
E
E
Go find a lover who will never leave
G
G
Fear of abandonment, self hate,
and discontent
D
D
E
E
Will go away when you let yourself grieve
E
E
And forget about me,
E
E
E
E
forget about me, forget about me"
