A Asus
Writing letters to my frenz
A
Telling them all about split ends
E
Watching flowers hit the floor
Asus
Why can't he see there's so much more
[Verse 2]
A Asus
Four of one, twenty of another
A
It's all the same to me, Brother
E
Never know these days, Mother
Asus
I might still be your lover, yeah
A Asus (x4)
[Verse 3]
A Asus
Nothing else is so obscene as
A
Coffee beans and smoke machines
E
Take your daughter for a ride
Asus
Let her know you're on her side
[Verse 4]
A Asus
Guess there's no words can beat
A
The Sunday treat where rigamortis meat
E
Wish you'd never found your feet
Asus
Sniffing toe jams really neat, it is
A Asus (x4)

A Asus
Writing letters to my frenz

Telling them all about split ends
