Chords

If an Em chord has an asterisk (*) next to it, you should quickly hammer-on and pull-of on the third fret of e and B strings a couple of times. Notice, that in the end of the second verse, the asterisk is omitted once, it is not a mistake. In the intro, all minor 11 chords are simply a six string bar harmonics, strummed once each time. B and C from the prefinal line are played as barre chords. G/F# = 2x0033 Dsus2 = xx0230 [Intro] Em* G G/F# x4 Em Am11 Bm11 Em Bm11 Am11 Em Am11 Bm11 Em Bm11 Am11 [Chorus 1]
Em                     C
Bad things happen everyday

G           Am          D          Dsus2
Cancers and murders and herpes and AIDS

Em        C   G     D
We'll all die alone someday

Em        Am        Em*   G G/F#   Em* G G/F#
I hope we don't die alone
[Verse 1]
Em                             C
And our vices make it bearable enough

   Am                              D
To know our lives are shit, but to not give a fuck

     Em      C        G      D  Em      Am     Em*  G G/F#  Em* G G/F#
They make it bearable enough to help us on our way
[Verse 2]
Em                       C
So it feels nice to feel alive

   Am                        D
To try to find a home or someplace to thrive

Em       C        G   D
It feels great to be alive

  Em                 Am            Em  G G/F#  Em* G G/F#
Except for all those times we feel dead
[Verse 3]
    Em                           C
And how do we maintain our buoyancy in this

Am                               D          Dsus2
Salty lake of shit and tears and murder and disease?

    Em    C       G       D        Em       Am   Em*  G G/F#  Em* G G/F#
How do we keep ourselves afloat in all this bad stuff?
[Chorus 2]
     Am                           Em
I've gotta know the answers, I've gotta know it now

      Am                          A    B  C    B C B
And I need to know the answers, I have to know how

Em        C    G        D      Em            Am   Em
We'll all die alone someday, I hope we don't die alone
