I just happen to have a surprise"

So we fell through the door like the autumn leaves
      Dm           A           C            G
And I wrestled my brother down to his knees

In a layer of dust

On the mantle
      Bb        Dm            C
Right by my cigarettes that I smoke

Cause you said you had to fly

And the people grieve with me since the towers came down

You could cut the pollution with a butterknife
          Dm         Am         C         G
You could wake up at 2 and then party all night
        Dm         Bb
But I'm missing my momma
        F            C              D    Am C G

I was outside shooting rockets

Almost as high
