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**
