should definitely listen to the song while playing it, it makes it a whole lot
easier. Watch the chords on the chorus they change in weird spots FYI. I m

Verse 1:
and it s too late to leave this life behind
everybody s speaking using words they can t define
and it s not my choice but i embrace it nonetheless
you brag of your indecency like a monkey beats its chest
you brag of your indecency like a monkey beats its chest
1st time 2nd time

Verse 2:
and i don t care who you are or what you ve done
everybody equals out when all the songs are sung
we will sing them loud and we will sing them until we pass
you re shattering our innocence like a bullet through a glass
you re shattering our innocence like a bullet through a glass
Chorus:
so hey: i don t care if you go now or if you stay
oh your back is bleeding, you re bleeding on me
that ll be the day when the sun falls down
............
the angels may weep but i ll hear no sounds but hey
Back to intro.
Verse 3:
i take that back i won t stop singing when i m dead
i ll sing from the great beyond, i will echo in your head
and if you think taking your life will set you free
you ve got something to learn, it s called humility
you ve got something to learn, it s called humility
Back to Intro:
Play chorus:
Saxaphone solo:
............
............
............
............
gone! everybody s crying
now you re gone
and everybody s missing you: from apathy to sympathy
this new found love is new to me
and i can hear you laughing in your grave
everyone s forgiven
now we re saved
every single sin absolved
what s the point denying
when we all know we are lying to ourselves (and you can t keep that smile off your face)
small solo:
Play chorus 2x
THE END
