12 string guitar tuned down a step F Ebm Gm C repeating progression throughout Intro If I had three minutes of your undivided attention Not under duress, or a relationship intervention These are the last words I would say. Then my brain freezes What the hell would I say Cause in all those years You never listened anyway Just angry rants, then you escaped Inside the bottle Just two minutes left and I want to tell you That I care, But I’m still so pissed off that you were never there For the kids and people who needed you most All I did was try to help, all you did was blame me For the hole you dug yourself into, with shame and deceit Shit, one minute left, deep down there’s someone who still loves you But is so wounded and jaded after all you put ‘em through The one word he needs to say to you is goodbye Times up, now you’re gone for good and I guess Looking at the kids, it’s gotta be for the best They didn’t know, the answers to why Repeat Intro

Guitar tuning EFAFAE What if there were 41 metalfoots? What if there were 41 metalfoots? Outside Morden, wandering around in the woods 40 metalfoots is a lot 41 metalfoots is a prime number 41 metalfoots outside playing hockey On a frozen pond of Morden in February Writing songs, shredding electric guitars And had metalfootlings That would be something What if there were 41 metalfoots? Roaming around outside Morden, wandering around in the woods What if there were 41 metalfoots?
