Gumby Gumby

           F                   G
You should call your daughter again

           C  Em
Don't call me

F
Call your daughter
[VERSE ONE]
Em            Am
Gumby, I just can't do anything

F                 C
Can't do anything right

      Em              Am
Don't ask me, if I'll help when helping you

F                     C
Just means someone to fight 

     Em       C
It's so hard, putting on your clothes

G              Am
You don't even move to cover your skin

G                                Em  C
Why move, moving is how things begin

    Em         C
The front yard taken by the crows

G                      Am
Blackguards with their shiny pieces of tin

G       C                Em   C
So much fury you bury it in
[Chorus]
G                Am  
Gumby, we should call your daughter 

       F                   C
Please call your daughter again 

    Em                   Am
You must see, things are getting harder

F                   C
Getting more out of hand
[VERSE TWO]
Em            C
Dude,  you're not even that old

Em              Am
How bad must it be to be bad as this

G       C                    Em  C
All day filling a bottomless pit

Em        C
All those trinkets bought and sold

Em                Am
All tokens you've thrown down to the abyss

Em        C                        Em  C
There's a bottom that you'll never hit
[Bridge]
Em                C               Em
I don't know just how you explain this 

     C
To a kid with nowhere to live

G                 C                    Em
Tell her that the father she has means well

    F                    G
But just has nothing to give
[Chorus]
G     C     Em
Gumby Gumby

           F                   G
You should call your daughter again

           C  Em
Don't call me

F                   G
Call your daughter again

G     C     Em
Gumby Gumby

           F                   G
You should call your daughter again

           C  Em  
Don't call me

F                   G
Call your daughter
