     Take this cup away from me

     For I don't want to taste its poison

Bbm Ab Gb F
But if I  die

Bbm          Ab          Gb                  F
See the saga through and do the things you ask of me

Bbm                Ab               Gb        F
   Let them hate me, hit me, hurt me, nail me to their tree

Why I  should die

Would I be more noticed than I ever was before

Bbm              Ab                  Gb         F
  Would the things I've said and done matter anymore
