INTRO G / D / Em / D / C x2
VERSE
GYou dreamed he'd shine like the sun
Now you son is set
DHey dad, grab another cigarette
Em DAshes fall like an unpaid debt
Come on everybody place your bets
GIn seventh grade he dug his grave
DTrying to be cool with the cool kids hey
Follow everything they say
CYou might fit in if you misbehave
GAt sixteen he promised he'd be clean
You didn't bend, but you sure did lean
Em D CYou do not deserve this
CHORUS
Hey Mr. Wilmington
DYeah, I heard about your son
Em DIt's hard enough to hide your scars
In smalltown USA
GSweet Mr. Wilmington
DYeah I read about your son
Don't blame yourself, you raised him right
CRemember that when you can't sleep at night
VERSE 2 (same as verse 1)
At twenty-one you found his gun
Hey dad, it's just begun
The ties that bind, they come undone
Come on everybody, just for fun
At twenty-four you found him on the floor
Decadence was all he wore
You do not deserve this
CHORUS
D Em C x4
Na na na na na
VERSE 3
At the funeral, read his eulogy
Insincere apologies
You do not deserve this
All the papers and press decide
Hey, just another suicide
You do not deserve this
