If I have a Ddaughter, guess what I'm a call her C

Verse
Dear EmSlim, you still ain't called or Cwrote, I hope you have a chance,
DI ain't mad, I think it's just Gf***** up that you don't answer fans Em
If you didn't wanna talk to Cme outside your concert
You didn't Dhave to, but you could've signed an Gautograph for DMatthew
That's my Emlittle brother man, he's only Csix years old
We waited in the Dblistering cold for you
For Gfour hours and you Djust said no Em
That's pretty s****y man, you're Clike his f***ing idol
He Dwants to be just like you man, he Clikes you more than I do Em
I ain't that mad though, CI just don't like being lied to
RememCber when we met in Denver, Gyou said if I Dwrite you
You would Emwrite back, see I'm just like Cyou in a way
I never knew my Dfather neither
He used to Galways cheat on my Dmom and beat her Em
I can relate to what you're Csaying in your songs
So when I Dhave a s****y day, I drift Gaway and put em Don
'Cause I don't Emreally got s*** else, so that s*** Chelps when I'm depressed
DI even got a tattoo of your Cname across the chest
EmSometimes I even cut myself to Csee how much it bleeds
It's like Dadrenaline, the pain is such Ga sudden rush Dfor me
See everyEmthing you say is real, and I resCpect you 'cause you tell it
My girlDfriend's jealous, because I talk Gabout you 24/7 D
EmBut she don't know you like I know you CSlim, no one does
DShe don't know what it was like for people Glike us growin' up D
You gotta Emcall me man, I'll be the biggest Cfan you'll ever lose
Sincerely Dyours, Stan, p.s.
CWe should be together too

EmHey Slim, I drank a fifth of Cvodka, dare me to drive? D
You know that song by Phil CCollins, In the Air of the Night
EmAbout that guy who could've saved that Cother guy from drowning
But Ddidn't, but Phil saw it all, Gthen at a show he found Dhim
EmThat's kinda how this is, you could've Crescued me from drowning
Now it's Dtoo late, I'm on a 1,000 Gdowners now, DI'm drowsy
EmAnd all I wanted was a lousy Cletter or a call
DI hope you know I ripped all of your Gpictures off Dmy wall
EmI love you Slim, we could've Cbeen together, think about Dit
You ruined it now, I Chope you can't sleep and you dream about it Em
And when you dream, I hope you Ccan't sleep and you scream about it
DI hope your conscience eats at Gyou and you can't Dbreathe without Emme
See Slim, Cshut up b****, I'm trying to talk
DHey Slim, that's my girlGfriend screamin' in the Dtrunk
EmBut I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her Cup, see I ain't like you
D'Cause if she suffocates, she'll suffer Gmore, then she'll Ddie too Em
Well, gotta go, CI'm almost under the bridge now D

EmLook, I'm really flattered you would Ccall your daughter that
And here's an Dautograph for your brother

C'mon, how f***ed up is you? Em
You got some issues, Stan, I Cthink you need some counseling
DTo keep your a** from bouncin' off the Gwalls when you get Ddown some Em
And what's this s*** about us Cmeant to be together?
DThat type of s*** will make me not Gwant us to meet each Dother Em
I really think you and your Cgirlfriend need each other
DOr maybe you just need to treat her Gbetter
DI hope you get to Emread this letter, I hope it Creaches you in time
Before you Dhurt yourself, I think that you'll Cbe doin just fine
If you reEmlax a little, I'm glad that I Cinspire you, but Stan
Why Dare you so mad? Try to unGderstand, that I do Dwant you as a Emfan
I just don't want you to Cdo some crazy s***
I seen this Done s*** on the news a couple of Gweeks ago that Dmade me sick Em
Some dude was drunk and drove his Ccar over a bridge
And had his Dgirlfriend in his trunk and she was Gpregnant with his Dkid
And in the Emcar they found a tape, didn't Csay who it was to
Come to Dthink about it, his name was, Cit was you... Em
EmDamn
