Dear Darlin,
      G#       Cm
Your mom, my friend
           G#           Cm
Left a message on my machine
            G#
She was frantic
                 G         G7
Saying you were talking crazy

     Cm            G#               Cm
That you wanted to do away with yourself
                 G#                        Cm
Guess she thought I would be the perfect resort
                   G#                   G                  G7
Because we've had this inexplicable connection since our youth

    Cm              G#
And yes, they're in shock
         Cm
They are panicked
              G#
You and your chronic
                Cm
Them and their drama
             G#
You this embarassment
          G                 G7
Us in the middle of this delusion


   Em           C
If we were our bodies
   Em           C
If we were our futures
   G           D
If we were our defenses
                  A
I'd be joining you

   Em           C
If we were our culture
   Em           C
If we were our leaders
   G           D
If we were our denials
                  A
I'd be joining you


I remember vividly a day years ago
We were camping
You knew more than you thought you should know
You said "I don't want ever to be brainwashed"
And you were mindboggling, you were intense
You were uncomfortable in your own skin
You were thirsty
But mostly you were beautiful

If we were our nametags
If we were our rejections
If we were our outcomes
I'd be joining you

If we were our indignities
If we were our successes
If we were our emotions
I'd be joining you

You and I, we're like four year olds
We want to know why, and how come about everything
We want to reveal ourselves at will, and speak our minds
And never talk small talk and be intuitive
And question mightily, and find God my tortured beacon
We need to find like-minded companions

If we were their condemnations
If we were their projections
If we were our paranoias, I'd be joining you

If we were our incomes
If we were our obsessions
If we were our afflictions, I'd be joining you

We need a reflection
We need a really good memory
Feel free to call me a little more often
