Lyrics

[Verse 1]
   F         C            Dm
My dad can't get out of bed 
        G7
There's somethin' in his lungs
               C                   C7
I think that's what the doctor said
  Bb              F
I gotta leave for Paris now
   Dm        C       Bb
My band goes on at 10
       Gm        C            F Bb F
And my dad can't get out of bed

[Verse 2]
    F                     C          Dm
The Earth is spinnin' like it always did
     G7
'The New York Times' is publishin'
     C                   C7
Some real important thing
    Bb                F
And each day when the world wakes up
    Dm         C           Bb
Our lawns will still be wet
       Gm        C            F Bb F C/E
And my dad can't get out of bed

[Chorus]
Bb            F             Am
God is really real when you really,
       Dm
really need Him
Bb           F              Am         Dm
Karma just appears when you suddenly believe it
Gm               C
Hear it loud and clear,
        Bb      C       Dm     C
just as long as it's convenient
Bb                 F/A
Life's fuckin' long   'til it stops,
Gm    Bb                Bbm
  and God's fuckin' fake   'til He's not

[Verse 3]
F Bb
F        F               C                 Dm
 There's robots that are way too good at art
    G7
And everybody's sad now
    C                C7
And tryna get to Mars
      Bb              F
Don't wanna hear your problems
               Dm       C         Bb
'Cause there's just one in my head
    Gm       C            F Bb F
And he can't get out of bed

[Verse 4]
F                C               Dm
What if we could break you out tonight?
     G7
This kind of thing happens to other dads
   C                   C7
It don't happen to mine
Bb                F
I'll distract the doctors;
         Dm        C             Bb
we could sneak out with your meds
Bb              F             Dm        C        Bb
You could come along and be a roadie for the band
     Gm       C            F Bb F C/E
Come on, Dad, get out of bed

[Chorus]
Bb            F             Am
God is really real when you really,
       Dm
really need Him
Bb           F              Am         Dm
Karma just appears when you suddenly believe it
Gm               C
Hear it loud and clear,
        Bb      C       Dm     C
just as long as it's convenient
Bb                 F/A
Life's fuckin' long   'til it stops,
Gm    Bb                Bbm
  and God's fuckin' fake   'til He's not
F Bb F

[Verse 5]
F                C            Dm
Now it's late, I really gotta go
    G7
And we can't face our feelings,
         C                   C7
so we're makin' lots of jokes
    Bb            F
And we won't cry about it, no,
Dm          C  Bb
we'll be manly men
   Bb                   F
"I love you" sounds all corny,
     Dm             C  Bb
so I wrote this song instead
     Gm
I'll sing it for you, Dad,
     C          A/C#   Dm C
when you get out    of bed
     Gm                C               F Bb F
I'll sing for you when you're out of bed
