_________________________________________________________________________________ Verse 1
Am
I had a brother once

G
He drowned in a bathtub

F                                    E          Am
before he'd ever learned, howwwww to talk

                  G
And I don't know what his name was

F
but my mother does

E
I heard her say it once

Am
Padraic my prince I've all but died

G
From the sheer weight of my shame

F
You cried but no one came

E
As the water filled your tiny lungs

Am
Appear my dear and cry for me

G
It was six years ago today

F
That I laid you in your grave

E
Your sweet young skin was shining then too
____________________________________________________________ Chorus 1
Am                         F
So tonight to celebrate, i will...

        G
I will poison myself

Am                                 F
Another coughing, shaking fit in a bathroom

        G
That is spinning

     C           G
And I close the door

      Am                  F             
And I rest my head on the tile floor

C            G                Am
Sickness and sleep turning me cooooold

        C              G
And I'm stilllll nottt sure

              Am                      F
Is there some better place I could be heading towards?

C                      G             Am                      E*  
...Where the selfishly sick and self-absorbeddddddddddddddddd
Am* Are welcome *-reverts back to intro E and Am INTRO X's 1 _____________________________________________________________________________ Verse 2
Am
I saw the future once

G
I was drunk in a phone booth

F
My eyes were wet and red

E                                          Am
But I could not tell what was said

                G
And through the screams of the traffic

F
Voices carried

E
Saying "I'm sorry"

Am
On a day so gray it's black inside

G
Watching churches on TV

F
In a coma you don't dream

E
You just hope that someone sits with you

Am
Babies turn blue when they're ignored

G
Like the sky on summer days

F
Before you turn and walk away

E
It has changed you
___________________________________________________________________________ Chorus 2
Am                          F
So tonight to compensate, I will...

       G
I will poison myself

Am                                F
Another coughing shaking fit in a bathroom

        G
That is spinningggg
