I tried to fall in it again

My friends took bets and disappeared

I am a lousy engineer

Plus I'm only twenty-six years old 
G               A               C 
My grandma died at eighty-three 
G                A                  C 
That's lots of time if I don't smoke 
G             Am               C 
I think I'll wait another year

I barely breath when you are near

It's not as bad when I don't drink 
G              Am              C 
I think I'll wait another year

I have my new Bill Hicks CD 
G              Am              C 
I have my friends and my career 
G              A              C 
I'm getting smaller by degrees 
G              A                C 
You said you'd help me disappear 
C               Bb 
But that could take forever 
Eb             F              C 
I think I'll wait another year 
C              Bb            Eb 
It'll be the best year ever

I think I'll wait another year

Can't we just wait together? 
Eb                 F                     C 
You bring the smokes, I'll bring the beer 
Eb             F                C 
I think I'll wait another year
