Tom: F
F Bb
[Verse 1]
F
I'm in a box above the sky
Bb
Over mountains, rivers, and potted plants
F Bb
And I imagined jumping and it didn't feel bad
F Bb
When I drive my car I imagine the crash
F Bb
How would it feel, would I last?
Eb Bb F
I wanted to sing these words for so long
Eb Bb F
Put them in a poem and play this song
C Bb F
But how it'd kill my mother to think she did me wrong
Eb Bb F
Don't you worry it's just a song
Bb
I'm in a 7-Eleven by the detergent and first-aid kits
F
I see a man walk in and think
Bb
He could be the one to end all this
F Bb
He could hold my life in his hands and choose it's had enough
F Bb
Would he know that I never have fallen in love?
Eb Bb F
If I went today
Eb Bb F
I'd have a laundry list of things I'm too afraid to say
C Bb F
I'd take them with me to by brand new grave
Eb Bb F
Oh, what a shame
Eb Bb F Eb Bb F
Oh, what a shame
C Bb F
Well it's a dark place to stand
C Bb F Eb Bb F
Dreaming of death and holding it's hand
F
I'm six years old again
Bb
In a princess dress my mother made
F
Running through a backyard maze
Bb
Getting that white dress all grass-stained
F
When I fall I get back up
Bb
When I'm hurtin', I cry it away
F Bb
When did it get so hard to say what I want to say
Eb Bb F
When I meet the end
Eb Bb F
Sooner or later, it'll come I'm sure of it
C Bb F
Watch the credits on my young life
C Bb F
Did I live like I could never die?
C Bb F
Waiting for a better time
C Bb F Eb Bb F
Waiting for a different life
Eb Bb F
Oh, what a shame
Eb Bb F Eb Bb F
Oh, what a shame
