Hammerhead

Am
All I really know is that I'm
G
Never coming home
          D                          C
And I'm sorry that I didn't tell you so
          Am
I'm gonna go and get an internship
      G
and then I'll get a job
               B                                 Em          E
and then I'll pack all of my shit up and fucking go

            C
I'll go to Mexico
            G
I'll go to Canada
            Am                B        Em
I'll mail myself to New York City in a box
              Am             D
You'll never hear from me again
             G
Save for an envelope I'll send
            Em              Am               D     Am       G
Containing fifteen billion dollars and some photographs of dogs

     Am
For half of my short life I've kept
     G
a drawer in my room for all the
  D                         Em
little trinkets I consider gold
   Am
Photographs, bottle caps,
   G
Lanyards, flowers, crumpled maps,
  D                B           Em
Things that look particularly old
     Am
The plan has always been
               G
That I should throw them out the window
         B7
If the building were to catch on fire
 Em
Given the dogs were safe outside
          Am
But the drawer is full of trash
             G
and I could turn it all to ash
             Am
Just for the fleeting joy I'd get from adding
Em         G      Em          E
More smoke to the sky

             C
I'll go to Mexico
            G
I'll go to Canada
            Am                B        Em
I'll mail myself to New York City in a box
              Am             D
You'll never hear from me again
              G
Save for an envelope I'll send
             Em             Am               D      Am      G

Well sharks are smooth if you pet them one way
           G
They are spikey you pet the other
            D                 B                  Em
And my mom said that if they stop moving they'll die
Am
Hammerheads swim past
             G
I've got my face up against the glass
       D                           G
As I whisper to my sisters "as will I"

            Em
I'll go to Mexico
            G
I'll go to Canada
             Am               B        Em
I'll mail myself to New York City in a box
