Chords
[Verse 1]
G Another forest metaphor Eb You've heard a million before B G/D The trees know everything, I tried a wedding ring Cm But you just cringed and said, "What for?" G And now the whole thing's turned to ash Eb You tried to cover it with cash G Another falling tree no one can hear but me Cm Another suicidal mess
[Pre-Chorus 1]
D C Landing on my doorstep, thanks a ton D C Oh, darling, how can I repay you for what you have done?
[Chorus]
G Em And then you lied to me at Whakanewha Cm And you sealed it with a kiss G Em I wanted to live with you, but, fuckin'-a, fuck you A C No one on Earth could live like this
D Cm
[Verse 2]
G Another clear-cut load of crap Eb A few more corpses in the sack G You'll get away with it, it's just the same old script Cm This world is shaped to have your back G You said, "I'm sorry," then you ran Eb And went and did it all again G I'm such a fool, I know
Street smart but gullible
Cm
I see the good in everything[Pre-Chorus 2]
D A pound of flax, a pound of steel C I may be dumb, but I can feel G F C I wonder when you'll realize what you had D A frightened bird, a crystal ball C So sad, you could've had it all G F C But you hate yourself too much to want all that D C I had so much hope for your broken heart D C But you've made your choice, and you chose the dark
[Chorus]
G Em And so I'll bury you at Whakanewha Cm And have a party with my friends G Em I'll miss you terribly, but, fuckin'-a, fuck me A C It feels so good to love again G Em And so I'll bury you at Whakanewha Cm And have a party with my friends G Em I'll miss you terribly, but, fuckin'-a, fuck me A C It feels so good to love again
