Thanks to version 1 guy for the start. [Intro] G G7sus4 G7sus4 G C F C G G C F C G [Verse 1]
G                C
Sled dogs after dinner

            F    C      G
Close their eyes on the howling wastes

G             C
Kurt Cobain reincarnated

F         C         G
Sighs and licks his face

          F                    C/E
Then they drift past strips of Serengeti

         C/G             G
And the gates of Sleepy Hollow too

        F                     C/E
You can pause in wonder, they paused in wonder

              C/G             G
And, yeah, I paused in wonder too
[Chorus]
G        Bb5 C5 F5 G5
Shhh

G        Bb5 C5 F5 G5
Don't

G        Bb5 C5 F5 G5
Wake

G        Bb5 C5 F5 G5
Daddy
G C F C G [Verse 2]
         G                        C
They can lay their heads on their futon beds

   F    C          G
So many miles from home

    G                        C
You teach your children some fashion sense

         F            C        G
And they fashion some of their own

    F               C/E
For when the policy weary commune

C/G            G
On the untamed land

F                              C/E         C/G
Through white sheers, whispers in their ears

         G
"You're damned"
[Chorus]
G        Bb5 C5 F5 G5
Shhh

G        Bb5 C5 F5 G5
And don't

G        Bb5 C5 F5 G5
Wake

G        Bb5 C5 F5 G5
Daddy
[Break]
G            G7sus4
Just don't
G G7sus4 G G7sus4 G G7sus4 [Verse 3]
        F                        C/E
You can stuff your void with the asteroid

         C/G               G
That's hurtling toward the Earth

        F                      C/E
You can drop the bomb that restores some calm

         C/G       G
And then promises rebirth
[Chorus]
G        Bb5 C5 F5 G5
Shhh

G        Bb5 C5 F5 G5
