[Intro]
Dm C Am F
Dm C Am F
 
 
[Verse 1]
Dm                     C           Am              F
  His father was a drinker and his mother cried in bed
Dm                      C               Am               F
  Folding John Wayne's tshirts when the swingset hit his head
Dm                         C
  The neighbors they adored him
        Am           F
For his humor and his conversation
Dm                         C
  Look underneath the house there
 
 
[Chorus]
            Am                            F
Find the few  living things, rotting fast, in their sleep
           Dm
Oh the dead
       C
2 7 people
          Am                                F
Even more,  they were boys, with their cars, summer jobs
         Dm C Am
Oh my God
        F
Are you one of them?
 
 
[Verse 2]
Dm                          C
  He dressed up like a clown for them
         Am                   F
With his face paint white and red
Dm                    C
  And on his best behavior
     Am               F                     Dm
In a dark room on the bed he kissed them all
                          C
He'd kill ten thousand people
 
 
[Chorus]
             Am                         F                        Dm
With a slight  of his hand, running far, running fast to the dead
                             C
He took off all their clothes for them
              Am                           F                       Dm C Am F
He put a cloth  on their lips, quiet hands, quiet kiss on the mouth
 
 
[Verse 3]
Dm                   C
  And in my best behavior
     Am               F
I am really just like him
Dm                 C
  Look beneath the floor boards
        Am             F
For the secrets I have hid
              His father was a drinker
And his mother cried in bed
Folding John Wayne's T-shirts
When the swingset hit his head
The neighbors they adored him
For his humor and his conversation
Look underneath the house there
Find the few living things
Rotting fast in their sleep of the dead
Twenty-seven people, even more
They were boys with their cars, summer jobs
Oh my God

Are you one of them?

He dressed up like a clown for them
With his face paint white and red
And on his best behavior
In a dark room on the bed he kissed them all
He'd kill ten thousand people
With a sleight of his hand
Running far, running fast to the dead
He took off all their clothes for them
He put a cloth on their lips
Quiet hands, quiet kiss
On the mouth

And in my best behavior
I am really just like him
Look beneath the floorboards
For the secrets I have hid
