Verse:
F I'll be the waterwings that
Gsave you if you startDm drowning
in an Fopen tab when your judgement's on the brink
F I'll be the phonograph that
Gplays your favorite Dmalbums back
as your Flying there drifting off to sleep Dm
F I'll be the platform shoes and
uGndo what heredity's Dmdone to you
You won't haFve to strain to look into my eyes
F I'll be your winter coat
Gbuttoned and zipped straightDm to the throat With the collarF up so
you won't catch a cold
