My tea's gone cold, I'm wonderin' why
GDEm
Got out of bed at all
CD
The morning rain clouds up my window
GDEm
And I can't see at all
CD
And even if I could it'll all be gray
GDEm
But your picture on my wall
CD
It reminds me that it's not so bad
GDEm
It's not so bad

EmCD
Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin
GDEm
I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
CD
I sent two letters back in Autumn, you must not have got 'em
GD
There probably was a problem with the post office or somethin'
EmCD
Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em
GDEm
But anyway, what's been up man, how's your daughter?
C
My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm bout to be a father
DC
If I have a daughter, guess what I'm a call her
Em
I'm a name her Bonnie
C
I read about your Uncle Ronnie too, I'm sorry
DGDEm
I had a friend kill himself over some b**** who didn't want him
CD
I know you probably hear this every day, but I'm your biggest fan
GDEm
I even got that underground s*** that you did with Skam
CD
I got a room full of your posters and your pictures man
GDEm
I like that s*** you did with Rawkus too, that s*** was phat
C
Anyways, I hope you get this man, hit me back
DC
Just to chat, truly yours, your biggest fan, this is Stan

EmC
Dear Slim, you still ain't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance
DGEm
I ain't mad, I think it's just f***** up that you don't answer fans
C
If you didn't wanna talk to me outside your concert
DGD
You didn't have to, but you could've signed an autograph for Matthew
EmC
That's my little brother man, he's only six years old
D
We waited in the blistering cold for you
GDEm
For four hours and you just said no
C
That's pretty s****y man, you're like his f***ing idol
DCEm
He wants to be just like you man, he likes you more than I do
C
I ain't that mad though, I just don't like being lied to
CGD
Remember when we met in Denver, you said if I write you
EmC
You would write back, see I'm just like you in a way
D
I never knew my father neither
GDEm
He used to always cheat on my mom and beat her
C
I can relate to what you're saying in your songs
DGD
So when I have a s****y day, I drift away and put em on
EmC
Cause I don't really got s*** else, so that s*** helps when I'm depressed
DC
I even got a tattoo of your name across the chest
EmC
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
DGD
Its like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me
EmC
See everthing you say is real, and I respect you cause you tell it
DGD
My girlfriend's jealous, because I talk about you 24/7
EmC
But she don't know you like I know you slim, no one does
DGD
She don't know what it was like for people like us growin' up
EmC
You gotta call me man, I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose
D
Sincerely yours, Stan, p.s
C
We should be together too

Dear Mr I'm-Too-Good-To-Call-Or-Write-My-Fans
GD
This'll be the last package I ever send your a**
Em
It's been six months and still no words
C
I don't deserve it
D
I know you got my last two letters
GD
I wrote the addresses on them perfect
EmC
So this is my cassette I'm sending you, I hope you hear it
DGD
I'm in the car right now, I'm doin' 90 on the freeway
EmCD
Hey Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, dare me to drive?
C
You know that song by Phil Collins, In the Air of the Night
EmC
About that guy who could've saved that other guy from drowning
DGD
But didn't, but Phil saw it all, then at a show he found him
EmC
That's kinda how this is, you could've rescued me from drowning
DGD
Now it's too late, I'm on a 1,000 downers now, I'm drowsy
EmC
And all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call
DGD
I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off my wall
EmCD
I love you Slim, we could've been together, think about it
CEm
You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it
C
And when you dream, I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it
DGDEm
I hope your conscience eats at you and you can't breathe without me
C
See Slim, shut up b****, I'm trying to talk
DGD
Hey Slim, that's my girlfriend screamin' in the trunk
EmC
But I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain't like you
DGDEm
Cause if she suffocates, she'll suffer more, then she'll die too
CD
Well, gotta go, I'm almost under the bridge now
C
Oh s***, I forgot, how am I supposed to send this s*** out?

EmC
Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner, but I've just been busy
DGD
You say your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she?
EmC
Look, I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that
D
And here's an autograph for your brother
GDEm
I wrote it on this Starter cap
C
I'm sorry I didn't see you at the show, I must've missed you
DGDEm
Don't think I did that s*** intentionally just to dis you
CD
But what's that s*** you said about you like to cut your wrists too?
D
I say that s*** just clownin' dog
Em
C'mon, how f***ed up is you?
C
You got some issues, Stan, I think you need some counseling
DGDEm
To keep your a** from bouncin' off the walls when you get down some
C
And what's this s*** about us meant to be together?
DGDEm
That type of s*** will make me not want us to meet each other
C
I really think you and your girlfriend need each other
DG
Or maybe you just need to treat her better
DEmC
I hope you get to read this letter, I hope it reaches you in time
DC
Before you hurt yourself, I think that you'll be doin just fine
EmC
If you relax a little, I'm glad that I inspire you, but Stan
DGDEm
Why are you so mad? Try to understand, that I do want you as a fan
C
I just don't want you to do some crazy s***
DGDEm
I seen this one s*** on the news a couple of weeks ago that made me sick
C
Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
DGD
And had his girlfriend in his trunk and she was pregnant with his kid
EmC
And in the car they found a tape, didn't say who it was to
DCEm
Come to think about it, his name was, it was you
