C#m        G#
Somebody's heine

C#m        G#   A        E
Guess I'll just close my eyes

w/intro
Oh yeah. All right. Feels good inside


Flip on the tele
Wrestle with Jimmy
Something is bubbling
Behind my back
The bottle is ready the blow

      My love is a life taker

I can't confront you
I never could do
That which might hurt you
So try and be cool
When I say
This way is a waterslide away from me that takes you further every day
So be cool

Chorus

B
Dear Daddy,
B/Bb
I write you
E             G
  in spite of years of silence

You've cleaned up
found Jesus
Things are looking good or so I hear
This bottle of Steven's
awakens ancient feelings
Like father, stepfather
The son is drowning in the flood
