INTRO SOL / RE / MIm / RE / DO x2
VERSE
SOL
You dreamed he'd shine like the sun
Now you son is set
RE
Hey dad, grab another cigarette
MIm RE
Ashes fall like an unpaid debt
DO
Come on everybody place your bets
SOL
In seventh grade he dug his grave
RE
Trying to be cool with the cool kids hey
MIm RE
Follow everything they say
DO
You might fit in if you misbehave
SOL
At sixteen he promised he'd be clean
RE
You didn't bend, but you sure did lean
MIm RE DO
You do not deserve this
CHORUS
SOL
Hey Mr. Wilmington
RE
Yeah, I heard about your son
MIm RE
It's hard enough to hide your scars
DO
In smalltown USA
SOL
Sweet Mr. Wilmington
RE
Yeah I read about your son
MIm RE
Don't blame yourself, you raised him right
DO
Remember that when you can't sleep at night
VERSE 2 (same as verse 1)
At twenty-one you found his gun
Hey dad, it's just begun
The ties that bind, they come undone
Come on everybody, just for fun
At twenty-four you found him on the floor
Decadence was all he wore
You do not deserve this
CHORUS
RE MIm DO x4
Na na na na na
VERSE 3
At the funeral, read his eulogy
Insincere apologies
You do not deserve this
All the papers and press decide
Hey, just another suicide
You do not deserve this
CHORUS
