Serve the Servants

Teenage angst has paid off well

One at Salem's lot

Serve the servants, oh no

That legendary divorce is such a bore
Bm7 E7
As my bones grew they did hurt
F# E
They hurt really bad
Bm7 E7
I tried hard to have a father
F# E
But instead I had a Dad
Bm7 E7
I just want you to know that I
F# E
Don't hate you anymore
Bm7 E7
There is nothing I could say
F# E
That I haven't thought before
