EBoomer, look at me back Aliving with my parents 
C#mmaking an appearance as a Bguest in my highschool bed 
Ebored with myself and predAictable depression 
my sC#mame old chord progressions 
but my Blyrics were better back Ethen 
[Bridge]
Oh Awell 
my C#mfault 
it will Bonly get worse with aEge 
But I Awill make C#mart 
until it Bkills me 
E
[Verse 2]
Gotta sneak aEway for a smoke 
old friends seem fAormal, not stoked 
either you C#mlost your sense of humor or they Bdon’t get your jokes 
they all quit Esmoking these days 
in fact, yAou’re the last one 
chiefed a C#mlonely little spliff on the Bfront porch 
[Verse 3]
It's a Elousy mess of aAdulthood 
looking for a C#mjob on craigslist like BI should 
Got my resumEe just today as Aspruced up with lies 
cause I don’t C#mwant to work in retail for the Brest of my life, no.... 
E
[Bridge]
Oh Awell

I can Balways sell lemonEade 
but I Awill make C#mart 
until it Bkills me 
[Chorus]
ABoomer you’re my last good friend 
Your too Esoon old, too shBort on time 
ARest your achy bones in your bed 
enjEoy your final curBtsy of life 
Your deatC#mh will be a Areal heartbreaker 
I assuEme it’s onBly natural I guess 
ANo less a Bbummer 
[Verse 4]
EKeep in good health and keep Aup with your peers 
Gotta rC#meinvent yourself, don't be Bthe redundant adjective 
ENobody cares about your Atravels 
So you sound C#mlike your bragging about the Bcountries you've been in but 
EI can recall a day when Ayou knew my middle name and 
C#mwe mostly felt the same noBw 
that kind of magic can Eonly exist in the

"go Btell it to your family dog" 
[Chorus]
ACause Boomer you’re my last good friend 
I can tEell you can tell I'm Bleaving again 
AJust hang in there a few more months 
I Eswear I'll make it Bworth it for you 
C#mA belly rub to eAnd all the pain 
now cElose your eyes, if tBhis is goodbye 
Ajust know I Blove you.

chiefed a lonely little spliff on the front porch
