Chords and Lyrics:
[Intro]
D Em7 F#m7 G A x2
[Verse 1]
D
I'm thinkin' maybe I should thank you
Em7
Oh baby I should buy you another round
F#m7 G
'Cause you care, and I swear that I'm here, but I'm there
A
It's getting harder to hunt me down
D
Get away to a place where the lakes such a great view
Em7
Leave the bank, couple hunnid thou'
F#m7 G
I made it, but I hate once I build it I break it down
A
Might just break me down
[Pre-Chorus]
D Em7
And all I ever needed was somebody with some reason who can keep me sane
F#m7 G A
Ever since I can remember I've been keeping it together but I'm feeling strange
D Em7
Get away when it ain't really safe and it don't seem right
F#m7 G A
But what's new? You get used to the bullshit, the screws they go missing
A
It's likely they might be but...
[Chorus]
D Em7
You remind me
F#m7 G
Shit, I need to stay in line
A
You damn well are a great design
D Em7
You, despite being an only child
F#m7 G
Say you need more of a family 'round
A
Let's turn these jeans into hand me downs
D Em7
Down, down, down, down, down
F#m7 G A
Down, down, down, down, down
[Verse 2]
D
Yeah, well I'm just being honest my conscience ain't doin' bad
Em7
Because I try to minus the problems that I attract
F#m7 G
And half the time the wheels that's in the back of my mind
A
Just keep on turning 'til the tires flat and burn until the fire crack
D
I do not lie though, facts may seem a little farfetched
Em7
That's only 'cause I may be make believe and full of darkness
F#m7 G
When I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place
A
Walk and drop in change inside your empty guitar case
D
That's charity um, I move carelessly that's why I'm always tripping
Em7
I guess that's like electrolytes you help me go the distance
F#m7 G
Not too efficient but the way it's always been
A
Until the day we have to meet again
[Pre-Chorus]
D Em7
Get away when it ain't really safe and it don't seem right
F#m7 G A
But what's new? You get used to the bullshit, the screws they go missing
A
It's likely they might be but...
[Chorus]
D Em7
You remind me
F#m7 G
Shit, I need to stay in line
A
You damn well are a great design
D Em7
You, despite being an only child
F#m7 G
Say you need more of a family 'round
A
Let's turn these jeans into hand me downs
D Em7
Down, down, down, down, down
F#m7 G A
Down, down, down, down, down

SL: How an artist came back from the dead
Recently, a young hip-hop artist from Pittsburgh came back from the
dead.
He passed away on September 7th, 2018 at the ripe-young age of 26, due
to a drug overdose.
Last year, he hauntingly released an album posthumously…
And it is…
Pretty damn great.
I’m sure some of you know about Mac Miller…
(Or maybe you know him as the guy who dated Ariana Grande, *sigh*)
For real though, he was a super talented dude and a completely unique
individual.
But the first time I heard of him, I wasn’t interested…
A friend of mine showed me the video to Mac Miller’s “Nikes On My Feet”
And I was like, “eff that, who’s this tatted-up white kid trying to be
all gangster?”
Fast forward to some years later where I listened to his album, “The
Devine Feminine” — and I was hooked.
Especially his song, “Stay”.
I even went back to “Nikes On My Feet” and thought, “Damn, he was good
then. Eff me for not being able to get passed the way he looked”
I guess I’m just dumb.
Well, in honor of the late Mac Miller, here is your priority-access,
first-look at the new cover of “Hand Me Downs”:

Let me know what you think, or what you don’t think.
Enjoy,
Dac Diller
P.S. I feel as though I need to promote the songs I cover, because
honestly, they’re funking good and you should at least give it a listen.
I mean, you don’t have to. But you’d be a lot cooler if you did
