Hello, Lou
           D/G
Do you remember me?
Gsus2                           D
We were school friends in elementary
D/F#                        Dsus2/G
You took the bus home every day at three
Gsus2/E                            D
I was town kid, you were from the country

Hello, Lou
                D/G
Remember those playground days?
Gsus2                      D
You and Dan Matson on the monkey bars swaying,
D/F#                        Dsus2/G
like circus acrobats doing twists in the air.
Gsus2/E                           D
I wasn't that good, but you guys still let me hang with you.

I know, Lou
              D/G
That doesm't seem like alot,
         Gsus2
but you made me feel cool,
        D
whether I was or not.
       D/F#                  Dsus2/G
And I showed my dad that one trick that you taught me
            Gsus2/E                   D
And I could tell by the looks in his eyes he was proud.

I'm so sorry you died.
    Gsus2                                   D
My mom told me in the kitchen and I hid my feelings inside.
            D/F#          Dsus2/G
It was the summer vacation 1995.
       Gsus2/E                                D
And I still picture you rolling that fucking fourwheeler on its side

And I was thinking about you, and so I Googled about you.
