[E]
[A]
[F#m] [A] Is [D] anyone remember [A] Tony?
[C#m] He was a quiet, [D] worldly lover, [A] weighty, had breasts like a girl.
When [D] he was a too busy feeling [A] lonely, that stare [D] over his shoulder, [A] had a map of the world.
He always finished all his homework, raised his [D] hand in [A] homeroom.
[D] He had [A] tendance, and pledged allegiance to the glory.
[E] When Tony [D] was so good [A] about dying, [F#] he [E] took my [D] toilet, [A] died instead.
[F#m] [E] Looked in the mirror, [D] saw that little [A] face staring [F#m] back at me, all [E] I've done, [D] [A] is move his head away.
I hated every [D] day of high [A] school.
It's [E] funny I [A] guess you did too.
Funny I [D] guess [A]
you did too.
There I was, sitting [D] right behind you.
[A]
[C#m] They wrote it [G#] in [A] books on reddit.
[E] Death comes [F#m] to the local [A] fag.
I guess you finally stopped believing [D] that [A] any hope would ever find you.
[E] Through that story I was, sitting right behind [A] you.
Hey, [E] Tony [A] was so good about dying, [E] took my toilet, [A] died instead.
[F#m] [E] Looked in the mirror, [D] saw that little [A] face staring [F#m] back at me, all [E] I've done, [A] is move his head away.

Hey, [E] Tony [Bm] was so good [A] about dying, took [E] my toilet, [G] died [A] instead.
[F#m] [E] Looked in the mirror, saw [F#m] that little face staring back at me, all [E] I've done, [Bm] is move his [A] head away.
All I've done, is move his head away.
All I've done, is move his head away.
All [E] I've done, [A] is move his head away.
All I've done, is move his head away.
All I've done, is move his head away.
[F#m] [E] Hey, Tony was so [F#m] good about dying.
