E            A      G#m     E
Below a pool table I lie
   A        G#m    E
One night in '99
               A                G#m        E
Half asleep when that song begins
                 A          G#m       E
Have to go find out who it is

E                             A                G#m
From the basement of the house party
E                                               A               G#m
I crawl up three flights of stairs like half a zombie
E                              A                  G#m
People dancing on my hands, I demand
E                                        A        G#m              F#m
Tell me the name of that ridiculously awesome band

              E                                  A
But no one hears me or gives a shit.
               C#m           B            E
About a stupid boy at the time unfit to stand on his two legs
      F#m
And ask politely instead he begs
     A
"Tell me, tell me, tell me!"

 E                        A                        G#m
A wasted skater, told me their name later
E                            A          G#m
Before this to music I was a hater
E                                 A           G#m
I had to go and I had to follow through
E                                            A       G#m          F#m
I bought their tapes and soon after I got their tattoo

                             E
But, by then their voice was dead
          A
Living on in my headphones
       C#m         B
With so much left unsaid

E                                                F#m
I wish I could have thanked him personally
     A
They did so much for me

( E   A   G#m )
