Dear Mrs Touma

(Gm F C9 Gm F C9 Gm F C9 Gm F Bb9)

[Verse]
C9
Dear Mrs. Touma
Bb9
I walked upstairs into the kitchen
Gm
Saw a piece of birthday cake
     Dm
And I heard my mother crying
C9
“Dressed in his black raincoat
                Bb9
“Black hat lying on the yellow line
Gm
“He was run down”
Dm
Your son was taken

                Gm
And he spoke so often With belief
F
With conviction Never with the
C9
Righteousness
Of the day he’d go to heaven
      Dm

And I will believe
Gm
If only for his sake
F
In father, son, and holy ghost
C9
In whom he was so certain
That he’d turn the other cheek to 
those
Dm
Who teased and hurt him

[Chorus]
Gm
Leo is dead

F            C9
It’s not the end of the world
Gm
Sometimes I wish it was
F                                 
I wouldn’t wish it on anyone
        C9

Gm
Leo is dead
F                        C9
It’s not the end of my world
Gm
Sometimes I wish it was
F                                 
Sometimes I wish it was
      Bb9


[Verse]
C9
The man across the street
Bb9
As he expresses sympathy
Gm
The fat, aging hypocrite
Dm
Spit into his face with me
C9
“When you heard he was gone
Bb9                               
“You couldn’t wait to be the first
 to seem concerned
    Gm

                  Dm
“Did you think we’d never learn?”

Gm
You were lying to us
F
You laughed at him
C9
You threw upon him your own vices
Dm
You lied to us about everything
Gm
You lied about your barfly conquests
F                                  
Dying your hair to hide the grey
C9

You’re masturbating bitterly on your
    Dm
 front porch -
While the wife’s away

[Chorus]
Gm
Leo is dead
F            C9
It’s not the end of the world
Gm
Sometimes I wish it was
F                                 
I wouldn’t wish it on anyone
        C9

Gm
Leo is dead
F                        C9
It’s not the end of my world
Gm
Sometimes I wish it was
F                                 
Sometimes I wish it was
      Bb9

Leo is dead
F            C9
It’s not the end of the world
Gm

I wouldn’t wish it on anyone

Sometimes I wish it was
