First track off of Q2 [Intro] G Am C D7 G Am C D [Verse 1]
        G
I wanna burn all of my clothes

            Am
And drown a bigot in the smoke

        C
I wanna take back every word

       D
That I ever ... wrote

        G
I wanna watch the ocean waves

       Am
Sink a tankard to the bottom

       C
In the middle of the night

     D
When nobody's watching
[Chorus]
       G
I want death

         G    D/F# E7
I want cala   mi   ty

           Am
I want the whole damn world to see

         D
What I'm seeing when I see

         G
What I'm seeing
[Verse 2]
        G
I wanna lay beneath the grass

     Am
So I never leave a mark

        C
I wanna exhale oxygen

       D
Like a tree out in the park

        G
I wanna watch death like a tidal wave

     Am
Wash away reality

               C
It may've been real good fun for you

           D
But it was all too real for me
[Chorus]
       G
I want death

         G    D/F# E7
I want cala   mi   ty

           Am
I want the whole damn world to see

         D
What I'm seeing when I see

       G
I want blood

         G        D/F# E7
I want a thousand year flood

      Am
Don't ask me why I want it

       D                     G
I just want it just because
[Instrumental] A Bm D E [Bridge]
            A
What brings young men down this path?

   Bm
Oh lord, am I a stranger?

        D
Both my folks are from Illinois

        E
I never thought I'd be in danger
[Chorus]
       A
I want death

         A    E/G# F#7
I want cala   mi   ty

           Bm
I want the whole damn world to see

         E
What I'm seeing when I see

       A
I want blood

         A        E/G# F#7
I want a thousand year flood

      Bm
Don't ask me why I want it

       E                     A
I just want it just because
