Intro 1

Verse 1
E 
 (E major) Have you ever had a dream
That your favorite baby's drowning
Am 
And you  (A minor) grab him by his sweater sleeve
and pull him up on to the ground
E 
And  (E major) you can hear the water slosh
around inside his tiny gut
Am 
 (A minor) Push his belly up and down
but he can't cough the water up
E 
 (E major) Suddenly a flood comes out
Am 
his mouth till there is nothing left in (A minor) side of him
He's empty now
There isn't even one small breath

Pre-chorus 1

And he goes limp in your arms

All the people's mouths are moving

All you hear are car alarms

And you wake up and start to cry

I will lose my shit if even one more person

I know dies

So please don't die
