Cm               Ab              
So, while you're fixing up your 
   Cm
bed
          Ab                    Cm
And while you're organizing drawers,
               Ab           
Could you just listen to the 
    Bb             B              
problems had with problems of 
    Cm
yours.
                Ab                 
And what's that note you're writing
      Cm
 there?
             Ab                  Cm
Why are you giving me this back?
                 Ab          Bb
This was a gift from when we met 
                B                  
back when you weren't so upset."
Eb




Eb           Gm             Ab
I called in sick from your funeral.
Eb                Gm             
The sight of your body made me 
     Ab
feel uncomfortable.
           Eb             Gm      
I couldn't recognize your shell.
    Bb    B




Cm          Ab               Cm
Your branching off had met an end
        Ab                        
From all the weight that made you 
Cm
bend.

And when you tried to shed your 
 Bb                  B            
leaves you pined for warmth as 
        Cm
they said
              Ab                
"Your lack of love for your dear 
     Cm
self
           Ab             Cm
is sapping all of us here out.
          Ab                   Bb 
Trace your roots back to the 
             B
ground work out the knotholes for 
yourself."


Eb          Gm              Ab
I called in sick from your funeral.
Eb                 Gm            
The sight of your family made me 
        Ab
feel responsible.
      Eb                      
and I found the notes you left 
         Gm
behind;
       Ab
little hints and helpless cries,
          Eb   Gm       Ab
desperate wishing to be over.

Ab              Cm                Bb
You said you're trapped in your body
            Ab
and getting deeper every day.
     Cm                      Bb
They diagnosed you born that way.
            Ab
They say in runs in your family.
                               Cm
A conscious erasure of working class
 background
           Bb
where despair trickles down
           Ab
imbalanced chemical crutch. Open up.
 Swallow down.
          Cm             Eb       
You said "remember me for me. I 
      Ab
need to set my spirit free."



Eb          Gm              Ab  
I called in sick from your 
funeral. (I called in sick! I called
      Eb
 in sick!)
               Gm               
Tradition of closure nearly felt 
    Ab
impossible.
                            Eb
I should have never gave my word to 
you;
      Bb
not a cry not a sound.
              Ab
Might have learned how to swim, 
never taught how to drown,
           Eb             Bb
you said "remember me for me".
              Ab
I watched you set your spirit free
