cision was disappointing

Am
How she had good for

And with my good grades it wouldn't
D
But they don't understand

More than brilliance and cer

tainly more than difference
Am
And if you ask me now would I repeat it

Would I fight in a war I don't believe in

Well the answer is if not me

Verse 4
the proud mother of young Sebastian
Em
Sub urban professional went
In self pity she suddenly cried
G
Would my life be important if
I suddenly died?
Am
Neighbors saying what a nice
women she was
Em
Keeping mostly to herself ever
since the divorce
downsizing and the fall and all
G
She really shouldn't take
it that personal at all
Am
It wasn't her boss who had
his eyes on her thighs
Em
And got a rise from her rising
off the desk though
D
And despite remembering
saying no plenty of times
G
It was still a damn surprise
being let go
Am
And now stuck with a mortgage
she cant afford
Em
And too educated to blame
the corporate world
D
She got on welfare and hated
it case work a power tripping
G
And generally being degraded if
Am
Nothing else she was treated
sick
Em
And ineffective which is the worst thing
D
That she'd been left with
G
Damn, no magic from David Blane
No painter to pain this pain
Am
No Morgan Freeman to narrate the shame
Em
So she took refuge and prayer
D
Kinda like finding god in the phone book
And it came to her sounding
G
something like a song hook

G
Am
Everybody gotta eat
but everybody doesn't
Em
Which is why I want to tell
you about my favorite cousin
D
He and I grew up where the sun shines
G
And we both partook with the gun crimes
Am
And we both liked American rap rhymes
Em
Even though we didn't
understand one line
D
If you remember my line of
notes in my last album
G
I talked about a close call with a grenade
Am
I think we both must have been
about 7th grade
Em
But don't panic we both
survived without damage
D
But we developed a bond like we
survived the titanic
became frantic
Am
My mother tried to get us out, planned it
To the last detail except
Em
the plan got derailed
Cos there wasn't enough
D
money for the plain tickets
How bitter when my mother had to
G
chose who to take with her
Am
So my cousin got left in the war
Em
and that's just hard to recall
But now I take refuge and prayer
in the phone book
G
It came to me sounding kinda like
