G F C G

Losing a whole year

I remember you and me used to spend

The whole goddamned day in bed

Losing a whole year

Hiding in your room we'd lay like dogs

And the phone would ring like a joke left unsaid

Losing a whole year

[Verse 1]

Rich daddy left you with a parachute

Your voice sounds like money and your face is cute

But your daddy left you with no love

And you touch everything with a velvet glove and

Now you want to try a life of sin

You want to be down with the down and in

Always copping my truths

I kind of get the feeling like I'm being used

In the car, in the kitchen, you were good to go

Now we're stuck with the tube

A sink full of dishes and some aqua lube
