Baby Hotline

[Verso 1]


D 
Baby Hotline 
A              E 
Please hold me close to you 
D 
Baby flat-line 
A             E 
Still time to do it too 
D 
Baby snack time 
A            E 
Chow down to earth but in your head 
C                  G 
She's a hoarder of quarters 
D               A 
And no boundary boredom-dum 
E 
Boundary boredom 


[Refrão]

Em              C             D            G 
I contend that your drinking eye has never opened 
Em          C             D 
I insist somebody will die 
            G 
And I hate hoping 
Em               C               D 
Wishing that the pills let you cry 
           G 
And I hate coping 
Em             C              D 
Someday I will go back outside 
            G 
And see her okay

D           A 
Baby sat by and felt the wind 
E                 C                G 
At least I called her a hoarder of quarters 
D               A 
And no boundary boredom-dum 
E 
Boundary boredom!

C          F 
Numb, feel burning with haste 
C                            F 
And I'm realizing now it's a terrible waste 
C                      F 
I feel numb, I've been burning with haste 
C                            F 
And I'm realizing now what a terrible waste 
C                      F 
I feel numb, I've been burning with haste 
C                            F 
And I'm realizing now it's a terrible waste 
C                      F 
I feel numb, I've been burning with haste

And I'm realizing now it's a terrible waste 
C            F 
I feel numb

Oh baby nevermind 
       C            F 
And my si-ight will run and hide
