[Verse 1]
C I knew a boy once when I was small
Am A towhead blond with eyes of salt
C He played the drum in the marching band
Am C His parents cared more about the BiAmble
Than being good to their own child C
He wore long sleeves 'cause of his dad
[Chorus]
Am And Fmaj7somehow, we fell out of Amtouch
Hope he tookFmaj7 his bad deal and made a royal Amflush
Don't knowFmaj7 if I'll see you again someAmday
But if you're outG6 there,G7 I hope that you're okay
C Am C Am
[Verse2]
C My middle school friend grew up alone
Am She raised her brothers on hеr own
C Her parents hated who shе loved
Am C She couldn't wait to go to colAmlege
She was tired 'cause she was broughtC into a world
Where familyAm was merely blood
[Chorus]
Does she knowFmaj7 how proud I am she was creaAmted
With the couFmaj7rage to unlearn all of their Amhatred?
We don'tFmaj7 talk much, but I just gotta say Am
I missG6 youG7 and I hope that you're okay C
[Bridge]
Address the lettersAm to the holes in my butterfly wings
C Nothing's forever,Am nothing was as good as it seems
D7sus4 And when the clouds won't iron out
Fmaj7 And the monsters creep into your house C
And every door is hard to G6close
[Chorus]
Well, I hope you know[Fadd9] how proud I am you were creAm7ated
With the cou[Fadd9]rage to unlearn all of their Am7hatred
But, God, IFmaj7 hope that you're happier today Am7
'Cause I loveG6 you
G7 And I hope that you're okay
