'Melancholia' is the demo for 'Ultraviolence' [Intro] Dm F C G x2 [Verse 1]
Dm             Bb                     G
If you ask the New York Times, they'll say that I'm dead

Dm             Bb                     G
And if Rolling Stone, they'll say I'm uninviting

Bb             Dm                      C
I don't really give a fuck, it's no surprise

  G                      Bb
I never had friends here either

              Dm                          C
Still I'm on a run with the light in my eyes

           G
And if you did it wouldn't happen either
[Chorus]
Dm        F          C              G
Sometimes bad things happen to good people

Dm            F           C        G
And sometimes angels touch pure evil

           Dm        F
That don't mean they stop

         C                G
They can fight for what's right and I will

Dm                      F
'Cause I don't have the time to kill

    C                   G
And I, I don't have the will
[Verse 2]
Dm             Bb                G
If you see the light in my eyes, know I'm shining

Dm              Bb                 G
I walk my road alone 'til here, so I'll keep riding

Bb                Dm                       C
I don't need your love, I've been this far down

G                      Bb
Back into the New York City

                Dm                     C
I've been sober for eleven years right now

        G
If that don't mean a thing, well, I tried
[Chorus]
Dm               F          C              G
'Cause sometimes bad things happen to good people

Dm            F          C        G
And sometimes angels touch pure evil

            Dm            F
And I won't stop, I won't fight

             C               G
I'll just stray towards the light

       Dm               F          C              G
'Cause I know sometimes bad things happen to good people
And that's mine [Bridge]
Bb     Dm
Jesus, walk with me

C                            G           Bb
I don't have anything I can offer up to you

       Dm               C
But Jesus can comfort me

                     G                       Bb
I don't really wanna drink, some powder will do

       F
Heaven is on Earth

C                Em
I have peace and that's more than you

Bb                 F             Am
I can live in the light like a maniac

                  G
In the stars attack, in the zodiac
[Interlude]
Dm F C G 2x (optional)
So ride for the first time and die for the last time
I'm with the angels and I'm stressed in the back row Keeping me harder, I try and I start But I'm scared I won't catch up and it don't matter [Chorus]
Dm        F          C              G
Sometimes bad things happen to good people

Dm            F          C        G
And sometimes angels touch pure evil

           Dm            F
And I will fight for the right

               C          G
To keep on making art out of my life

Dm          F             C
Fight for the right to be different

         G
In a world full of fake bitches
