I've got a kid

    B
His name is Scott

     C
He's goin' blind

         D     C     Em-Am      Em
And his blood just will not clot

     C             G       
The doctors line in rows

             D              Em      D--- C---
To stick tubes up Scotty's nose

 G  
There is the field

      B               C
Where Scotty used to play

       D    C        Em-Am-Em
Until Ortho Orange Number 42

     C                G       D--- C---
Was dumped in it one day

0~D-(D-D)
I think it's so funny

Just me and God

 C               D
Watchin' Scotty die

 Em   C     G    C   Em    C
Just me and God~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The chemical plant across the street

 C                        D                Em
Leaves off steam that colors our white sheets

           C            G  
It's been happening for years

         D              Em         D--- C---
Now I'm crying rainbow tears

 G                B
One day my dog went out to play

  C               D-   C-   Em-Am-   Em          
Instead of grey he came back colored yellow

     C                     Em
The chemical men said stay mellow

   C               G
It happens all the time

    Am                Em            
Now Scotty's skin is lime

0~D-(D-D)
I think it's so funny

Just me and God

 C               D
Watchin' Scotty die

Just me and God~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Watchin' Scotty die.
