My girl got a job 
But she won't tell me what she does, oh

I don't see her anymore, 
Yeh, she's the one I love

My case was how you packed it oh oh oh 
G 
Kids swimming in the dirt 
Mum's praying no one gets hurt 

C                         Am 
Rain dripping inside of a windowsill

Dad's crying, 'cause the baby's ill

Living off of dreams 
That you put in my heAD 
              G 
but there are worse ways to starting the day

And i hold on tight and shut my eyes 
Mnd i mutter the lords prayer at the end of the day

wish my genetic disposition would fall all away
