Queen Of Sorrow

Tom: Am

Am C/G Fmaj7 C/G G 2x

[Verse 1]

Am      C/G           Fmaj7
Defeating the purpose
       C/G    G          Am
Feeding the nervousness
     C/G       Fmaj7
Living unheated
       C/G    G        Am
Reading about happiness
       C/G          Fmaj7
Reaching the pavement
       C/G       G       Am
Meaning to be here again
        C/G            Fmaj7
Dreaming of the ceiling
        C/G       G
Promising not to fall down again


Am C/G Fmaj7 C/G G 2x


[Verse 2]

Am    C/G          Fmaj7
Evening, like heaven
        C/G      G             Am
Morning, feel like shit again
      C/G            Fmaj7
Deeper than the ocean
      C/G     G          Am
Moving from pain to pain
               C/G           Fmaj7
Queen of sorrow, don't bother
        C/G
you can have her
        G        Am
I don't want her
      C/G                 Fmaj7
I'm a fighter, I'm a lover
               C/G        G
I'm keeping my head above water


[Chorus]

Fmaj7                Am C/G
Only the strong survive
Fmaj7                        Am C/G Fmaj7 G 
But I know they will surely die


Am C/G Fmaj7 C/G G 4x


[Verse 3]

Am           C/G         Fmaj7
Dear father, sweet sister
      C/G       G       Am
Mother, I still miss her
              C/G           Fmaj7
I get stronger by the moment
             C/G               G     Am
But I wonder what's around the corner
                C/G             Fmaj7
I need something, a distraction
               C/G         G     Am
Something better something bigger
             C/G
Is it worth it
                Fmaj7
To keep dreaming
                   C/G           G
If the world will soon fall to pieces


[Chorus]

Fmaj7                  Am C/G
Only the strong survive
Fmaj7                       Am C/G Fmaj7 G
But I know they will surely die

Fmaj7                Am C/G
Only the strong survive
C                           Am C/G Fmaj7 G
But I know that we all will die
