Verse 1

My friend Peter was not that old
         Am                  Em

Em
My friend Peter's mother, boy she was a bitch
Am                            Em

She left her money to her fancy gent
N.C.
She didn't leave my friend Peter a cent

My friend Peter was never hip
        Am                   Em

She wouldn't show my friend Peter the sights

Verse 5

My friend Peter was a worried guy
         Am                   Em

They wouldn't let my friend Peter go far

My friend Peter just took his life
