[Verse 1]

 C
My family left the city in the year 2004

  C
Yeah, the bishop spun my mother round and pushed her out the door

         F            G            D
And the blindfold was tied a double knot

       F                G                   C
She's peeking out in the Goodwill parking lot

 C
Lewis was the only friend I made for all that year

  C                                                                                 F
His father watched cartoons and construct castles from empty cans of beer after work

       G    C
For the MDSHA

    F                    G              C
The sun danced off his reflector vest all day

    F             G
And everything was fine (everything)

   C             Am
And everything was good (was good)

   F             Fm           C
And everything was pretty O.K

  C
Lewis let us skateboard to meet Jay so I could see

  C
His darkened room all full of porn and ICP CDs

    F               G                     D
The Hewlett Packard glow, the double dare

   F            G                  C
The model in his desktop background bare

 C
We rode home and climbed the hill to Lewis' double wide

 C
His father asked if he had filled that hole in the backyard

         F        G              D
He said no and I followed to his room

    F               G                  D               C
His mother's steady stream of filtered cigarette smoke womb

   F               G              D              C
We sat down on his bed the sunset gave way to the stars

      F               G          C
Then Lewis taught me how to play guitar

    F             G
And everything was fine (everything)

   C             Am
And everything was good (was good)

   F             Fm           C
And everything was pretty O.K

 F            G
Everything was fine

   C              Am
Oh, everything was good

   F             Fm          C
And everything was pretty O.K

C
Lewis failed in algebra

C
He failed in English too

C
He had no middle name and no desire to go to college

          F          G             D
So he'd sit and wait patiently to leave

     F           G                 C
Pretending to be listening carefully
