C              F
It was a green morning
Em            Dm        Am
You told me in a cab
C                F        Em
You fucked me in mourning
          Dm                     Am
Just like that dream I'd already had

[Chorus]
C       F      Em
I was a father
      Dm
For a few weeks
    Am           F
But you wouldn't let me
C               F      Em
I was just your fodder
      Dm                Am
For a good night's sleep

[Verse 2]
C           F             Em
Im stuck in daydreams and sex dreams
    Dm                   Am
And reality I can't keep straight
C                   F
Like you saying you wanted
Em      Dm                        Am
2 and a half kids with a white picket fence
C          F              Em         Dm
My erratic heart rate has started to inflate
                 Am
And I don't know when it will stop
C               F        Em           Dm
In this cab I'm aware of the blood in my ears
                       Am
But its been there all these years

[Chorus]
C       F      Em
I was a father
      Dm
For a few weeks
    Am           F
But you wouldn't let me
C               F      Em
I was just your fodder
      Dm                Am  Em  C
For a good night's sleep
