On The Dawn Of The Final Day

Human Kitten


Tom: G

                    G
On the dawn of the day
              Em
When my life ends
             Am
I'll make my way down to the kitchen
    D                    Dsus4    D
And work on scrambling an egg

[Verse 2]
                   G
On the dawn of the day
             Em
When I will die
              Am
I'll tell a stupid joke to my mother
     D               Dsus4    D
And surely she will sigh

[Verse 3]
                 G
I've been left alone
             Em
For far too long
 Am
Community has always eluded me
         D                   Dsus4  D
So I've wallowed in my inner sad   song

[Verse 4]
                  G
At the end of my life
                    Em
I'll be sick to my stomach
         Am
Cause no matter how cruel this world's been to me
   D                        Dsus4  D
I know I'll find reasons to miss it

[Bridge]

Dsus4 D Dsus4 Am G D*

[Verse 5]
                       G
So I'm glad I haven't yet
                     Em
Been found dead

Cause that was never guaranteed to me
        Am
Whether it be by my own hand
        D                   Dsus4      D
Or the ruthless hand of the powers that be

[Bridge]

Dsus4 D Dsus4 Am G D*

[Chorus]

Am                  G     Am
    I see a distant hell
                       G                     Am
When I stare into the eyes of my past self
                            G
But there is only here and now

[Bridge]

D D D Dsus4 D Am G Am G Am G D*

[Verse 6]
                   G
On the eve of the day
                  Em
When it cuts to black
           Am
I'll crawl out of bed at midnight
              D                      Dsus4 D
And eat some disgusting prepackaged snacks

[Verse 7]
                   G
On the eve of the day
             Em
When I disappear
             Am
I'll read a short story to my cousin's kids
          D            Dsus4  D
And hope they can live lives with less fear

[Bridge]

Dsus4 D Dsus4 Am G D*

[Verse 8]
                  G
At the end of my life
              Em
I'll bury my brain
        Am
Within memories of all the art I love
   D                      Dsus4 D
Reflections of beautiful humanity

[Bridge]

Dsus4 D Dsus4 Am G D*

[Chorus]

Am                       G     Am
    I won't be afraid to go
                      G                     Am
I've long since given up any sense of control
                        G
I'll just know I never knew

D D D Dsus4 D Am G Am G Am    G D*
      anything         at all

[Outro]

                   G*
At the end of the dawn
              Em*
Of the final day
             Am*
I'll say goodbye to the people I grew to love
                D*              Dsus4* D*      Am*
But there will still be endless words left to say

G* Am* G D Am G**
