[Em][F][G]

[Verse 1]
I [G]watch my [C]yellow cat
Invade my [G]red cat in the yard
The [C]fe line [F]war has raged for [C]years
[F]So I as[C]sume it'd be too [G]hard
For me to [F]drive my [Em]foot between [F]them
I would [G]never risk the scratch
[Am]Just [F]to prove to [Em]one or both of them
[G]A cat is just a cat
[C]Again, I watch

[Verse 2]
[F]my cousin greg
Watch [G]mtv inside his home
He makes fun [F]of the hip hop videos
From [G]the couch he rides alone
Snug in the [F]cushion of his cackling
He for[G]gets his living doubt[Em]s
He has [F]re lied on [Em]this for years
You [Am]will not [G]yank the carpet [Am]out
These are my friends [C]This is

[Verse 3]
[F]
who they have been for [C]al ways
[Am]These are my days
[C]This is [F]how they [C]stay
[F][G][Em][G][F]

[Verse 4]
[C]
[G]I watch this dud[F]e
Each night, same table
He cre[G]ates and crumples up
His eyes [F]are wide from sipping endlessly
His [Em]endless [G]coffee cup
He feeds me [F]quotes
That lonely goat
I watch him [G]grazing by himself
I [Em]will not [F]stop him [G]when he [Am]rambles
I'm be[G]coming one myself
[C]Lou is

[Verse 5]
[F]bugged
Shot up with drugs
He sweats this [G]bird he hardly knows
All that he [F]wants is to see someone
He re[C]spects without their [G]clothes
So like some [F]hybrid mother lover
She'd [G]soothe and heal his [Em]wounds
And kiss those [Am]dying [Em]ears so softly
That the [G]reaper stops to swoon
Oh [Am]please
These are my friends [C]This is

[Verse 6]
[F]
who they have been
for [C]al [Am]ways
These are my days
[C]This is [F]how they [G]stay[Am]
These are my friends [C]This is

[Verse 7]
[F]
who they [C]remain forever
[Am]This is how we [C]stay

[Verse 8]
I [G]watch [F]my neighbor's son
Play with [G]his shotgun in the street
I [C]think [F]I'll blaze all day
And marvel at [C]the massive
[G]food I eat
It's strange,
I'm [F]skinny [Em]when [F]I'm standing
But I'm [C]buddha when [G]I sit
[C]And if I'm truly s[F]o enlightened
Why'd I [G]waste your time on it
As [C]I look

[Verse 9]
[F]back at countless
crossroads
And the [G]middle where I stay
Right [F]up the beaten path to boredom
Where [C]the [G]fakest fucks get laid
By the faux-finest [F]finds
finds
It's been that way
God [G]damn you, how you stay
With [F]every scummy, [Am]crummy [Em]hour
Of [G]the scummy, crummy day

[Verse 10]
[Am]These are my friends
[C]This is [F]who they have [C]been for always
[Am]These are my days[Em]
[C]This is [F]how they [G]stay[D][Am]
These are my friends [C]This is

[Verse 11]
[F]
who they [C]remain forever
[Am]This is how we [C]stay
