The Pantaloon

	  		 
 

G            C 
Your grandpa died 

              Em 
When you were nine 

          D 
They said he had 

         G 
Lost his mind 

         C 
You have learned 

        Em 
Way too soon 

           D                    G     C     Em     D 
You should never trust the pantaloon 


G             C 
Now it's your turn 

       Em 
To be alone 

       D 
Find a wife 

                     G 
And build yourself a home 

         C 
You have learned 

        Em 
Way too soon 

          D                 C            
That your dad is now a pantaloon 


              G 
You are tired 

              Em 
You are hurt 

                   D 
A moth ate through 

                    C 
Your favorite shirt 

                    G          Em 
And all your friends fertilize 

                    D 
The ground you walk 

C    D    G 
Lose your mind 

*either no music or quiet C, G, Em, D progression here* 

He's seen too many stare downs 


Between the sun and the moon 


In the morning air 


How he used to hustle all the people 


Walking through the fairgrounds 


He's been around so long 


He's changed his meaning of a chair now 


Because a chair now, 


Is like a tiny island in the sea of all the people 


Who glide across the very surface 


That made his bones feeble 


The end can't come soon enough 


But is it too soon? 


Either way he can't deny 


He is a pantaloon

              G 
You are tired 

              Em 
You are hurt 

                   D 
A moth ate through 

                    C 
Your favorite shirt 

                    G          Em 
And all your friends fertilize 

                    D 
The ground you walk 

C    D    G 
Lose your mind 

G                       C 
You like to sleep alone 

                          Em 
It's colder than you know 
  
                      D 
Cause your skin is so 

                     G 
Used to colder bones 

                       C 
It's warmer in the morning 

                    Em 
Than what it is at night 

                      D 
Your bones are held together 

                                   C 
By your nightmare and your frights 


              G 
You are tired 

             Em 
You are hurt 

                   D 
A moth ate through 

                    C 
Your favorite shirt 

                    G          Em  
And all your friends fertilize 

                    D 
The ground you walk 

C    D    G 
Lose your mind
