tiny little houses - richard cory lyrics

[verse 1]
when richard cory came around
we looked at him like he was crowned
a gentleman, so gracious
he was quiet, understated
and he always bought the beer although he knew we couldn’t pay
and he fluttered all the pulses of the girls lined in his way

[verse 2]
and his family was wealthy
and he aced each of his grades
yeah, he made it look so easy
we all wished that we could be him
but i lost touch after high school when he got a law degree
you might see him back for christmas
he would always wave at me

[verse 3]
so on we worked and waited
living from our hands to mouth
and we heard he bought a condo
but no word about a spouse
and our kids were all tucked in
and we were sleeping in our beds
when richard one calm summer night put a bullet through his head
when richard one calm summer night put a bullet through his head
when richard one calm summer night put a bullet through his head
[breakdown]
they buried you the day it rained
your funeral felt so strange
i don’t know who else to blame
god i wish you would have stayed

[outro]
when richard cory left this world
our lives stopped making sense at all
