Verse 1
[Em]Dear Slim, I wrote you,[C]you, but you still ain't callin [D]
I left my cell, my pager, and my [G]home phone at the bot[D]bottom [Em]
I sent two letters back in Autu[C]Autumn, you must not have got 'em [D]
There probably was a problem with the [G]post office or [D]somethin'
[Em]Sometimes I scribble addresses too [C]sloppy when I jot 'em [D]
But anyway, what's been [G]up man, how's your [D]daughter?[Em]daughter?
My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm bout to be[C]be a father
If I have a [A/C#]daughter, guess what I'm a call her[C]her
I'm a name her Bonnie [Em]
I read about your Uncle [C]Ronnie too, I'm sorry
I[D]I had a friend kill himself over s[G]some b**** who didn't [D]want him [Em]
I know you probably hear this every day[C]day, but I'm your biggest fan[D]fan
I even got that undergr[G]underground s*** that you did with [D]Skam [Em]
I got a room full of your [C]posters and your pictures man [D]
I like that s*** you did with [G]Rawkus too, that [D]s*** was phat [Em]
Anyways, I hope you [C]get this man, hit me back
[A/C#]Just to chat, truly yours, your [C]biggest fan, this is Stan

Got [G]out of [D]bed at all[Em]all
The morning [C]rain clouds up my [D]window
And [G]I can't [D]see at all[Em]all

Verse 2
Dear [Em]Slim, you still ain't called or w[C]wrote, I hope you have a chance,
[D]I ain't mad, I think it's just [G]f***** up that you don't answer fans[Em]fans
If you didn't wanna talk to [C]me outside your concert
You didn't [D]have to, but you could've signed an [G]autograph for [D]Matthew
That's my[Em]my little brother man, he's only [C]six years old
We waited in the [D]blistering cold for you
For [G]four hours and you [D]just said no [Em]
That's pretty s****y man, you're [C]like his f***ing idol
He [A/C#]wants to be just like you man, he l[C]likes you more than I do [Em]
I ain't that mad though,[C]though, I just don't like being lied to
Rememb[D]Remember when we met in Denver[G]Denver, you said if I [D]write you
You would [Em]write back, see I'm just like[C]like you in a way
I never knew my [D]father neither
He used to [G]always cheat on my [D]mom and beat her [Em]
I can relate to what you're [C]saying in your songs
So when I [D]have a s****y day, I drift [G]away and put em [D]on
Cause I don't [Em]really got s*** else, so that s*** [C]helps when I'm depressed
[A/C#]I even got a tattoo of your [C]name across the chest
[Em]Sometimes I even cut myself to [C]see how much it bleeds
Its like [D]adrenaline, the pain is such [G]a sudden rush [D]for me
See ever[Em]everthing you say is real, and I res[C]respect you cause you tell it
My girl[D]friend's jealous, because I talk[G] about you 24/7[D]
[Em]But she don't know you like I know you [C]slim, no one does
[D]She don't know what it was like for people[G]people like us growin' u[D]up
You gotta [Em]call me man, I'll be the biggest [C]fan you'll ever lose
Sincerely [A/C#]yours, Stan, p.s.
[C]We should be together too
Chorus
[Em]My tea's gone [C]cold, I'm wonderin' [D]why

Verse 3
[Em]Dear Mr I'm-Too-Good-To-C[C]I'm-Too-Good-To-Call-Or-Write-My-Fans [D]
This'll be the last package I [G]ever send your a**[D]a**
It's been six [Em]months and still no words
I don't des[C]deserve it
I know you got my [D]last two letters
I wrote the add[G]addresses on them perfect[D]perfect
[Em]So this is my cassette I'm sending you[C]you, I hope you hear it
I'm [D]in the car right now, I'm doin' [G]90 on the freewa[D]freeway
[Em]Hey Slim, I drank a fifth of [C]vodka, dare me to drive[A/C#]drive?
You know that song by Phil [C]Collins, In the Air of the Night
[Em]About that guy who could've saved that [C]other guy from drowning
But [D]didn't, but Phil saw it all,[G]all, then at a show he found h[D]him
[Em]That's kinda how this is, you could've [C]rescued me from drowning
Now it's [D]too late, I'm on a 1,000 [G]downers now, [D]I'm drowsy
[Em]And all I wanted was a lousy[C]lousy letter or a call
[D]I hope you know I ripped all of your [G]pictures off[D]off my wall
[Em]I love you Slim, we could've [C]been together, think about [A/C#]it
You ruined it now, I[C]I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it[Em]it
And when you dream, I hope you [C]can't sleep and you scream about it
[D]I hope your conscience eats at[G]at you and you can't [D]breathe without m[Em]me
See Slim, shu[C]shut up b****, I'm trying to talk
[D]Hey Slim, that's my girl[G]girlfriend screamin' in the [D]trunk
[Em]But I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her [C]up, see I ain't like you
[D]Cause if she suffocates, she'll suffer [G]more, then she'll [D]die too[Em]too
Well, gotta go,[C]go, I'm almost under the bridge now[A/C#]now
Oh s***, I forgot,[C]forgot, how am I supposed to send this s*** out?

[Em]My tea's gone [C]cold, I'm wonderin' [D]why
Got [G]out of [D]bed at all[Em]all

Verse 4
[Em]Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner[C]sooner, but I've just been busy
[D]You say your girlfriend's pregnant now[G]now, how far along is [D]she?
[Em]Look, I'm really flattered you would [C]call your daughter that
And here's an [D]autograph for your brother
I [G]wrote it on [D]this Starter cap[Em]cap
I'm sorry I didn't [C]see you at the show, I must've missed you
[D]Don't think I did that s*** [G]intentionally [D]just to dis you [Em]
But what's that s*** you said[C]said about you like to cut your wrists too?[A/C#]too?
I say that s*** just clownin' dog [C]
C'mon, how f***ed up is you? [Em]
You got some issues, Stan, I [C]think you need some counseling
[D]To keep your a** from bouncin' off the [G]walls when you get [D]down some [Em]
And what's this s*** about us [C]meant to be together?
[D]That type of s*** will make me not [G]want us to meet each [D]other [Em]
I really think you and your [C]girlfriend need each other
[D]Or maybe you just need to treat her [G]better
[D]I hope you get to [Em]read this letter, I hope it [C]reaches you in time
Before you [A/C#]hurt yourself, I think that you'll [C]be doin just fine
If you re[Em]relax a little, I'm glad that I in[C]inspire you, but Stan
Why [D]are you so mad? Try to under[G]understand, that I do [D]want you as a [Em]fan
I just don't want you to [C]do some crazy s***
I seen this [D]one s*** on the news a couple of [G]weeks ago that [D]made me sick [Em]
Some dude was drunk and drove his [C]car over a bridge
And had his [D]girlfriend in his trunk and she was [G]pregnant with his [D]kid
And in the [Em]car they found a tape, didn't [C]say who it was to
Come to [A/C#]think about it, his name was,[C]was, it was you... [Em]
Ending
[Em]Damn
