[E]
You're a pathless coonie that's a miserable dull affair
Straight out of the crowd, talking much too loud, running up and down the stairs
[A] Well it seems to me that you've had said too much in too few years
[E] And though you try, you just can't hide your howl as a kid
[B] You better stop, [A] and look around
[D]
[E] Dear Tom, Dear Tom, [A] Dear Tom, Dear Tom
[E] Dear Tom, don't I drink those breakdowns
When you were a child, you were treated kind, but never brought up right
You always thought with a thousand torches, still you cried all night
[A] Your mother, who neglected you, owned a million dollars packed
And [E] your father still put back the way of making cedar wax
You [B] better stop, and [A] look around
[A] [E] Dear Tom, Dear Tom, Dear [A] Tom, Dear Tom
[E] Dear Tom, don't I drink those breakdowns
[B] Oh, who's to blame?
[E] That girl, just insane
Well [A] there's nothing I could hope to change in the world
[B] It only seems to make matters worse
[E]
You were still in school, you played that fool fool villain and messed your mind
But after that you turned your back on treating people kind
[A] Armed up, let's trip back, try so hard to rearrange your mind
[E] But after a while I realized, oh this soaring demand
You [B] better stop, and [E] look around
[D] [E]
[A] Dear Tom, [E] Dear Tom, Dear Tom, Dear Tom
Oh,
[B] who's to blame?
[E] That girl, just insane
Well [A] there's nothing I could hope to change in the world
[B] It only seems to make matters worse
[E] When your child was treated kind, but never brought up right
You always thought with a thousand torches, still you cried all night
[A] Your mother, who neglected you, wore a million dollars hat
And [E] your father, still perfected ways of making cigarettes
[B] You better stop, and look around
