[Intro] C#m F# (2x) D E A [Verse]
A                    E
I hope that our few remaining friends

D                    A
Give up on trying to save us

  A                      E
I hope we come up with a failsafe plot

        D                        A
To piss off the dumb few that forgave us

A                    E
I hope the fences we mended

D                           E
Fall down beneath their own weight

      A                        F#m
And I hope we hang on past the last exit

  D                     E
I hope it's already too late

    A                                          F#m
And I hope the junkyard a few blocks from here
Someday burns down
    D
And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away

                 E                  D
And I never come back to this town again

      E             A
In my life I hope I lie

         F#m
And tell everyone you were a good wife

               A
And I hope you die

          E         A
I hope we both die
[Instrumental] C#m F# (2x) D E A [Verse]
A                   E
I hope I cut myself shaving tomorrow

D                        A
I hope it bleeds all day long

    A                          E
Our friends say it's darkest before the sun rises

     D                             A
Well we're pretty sure they're all wrong

A                       E
I hope it stays dark forever

D                      E
I hope the worst isn't over

    A                       F#m
And I hope you blink before I do

  D                E
I hope I never get sober

      A
And I hope when you think of me years down the line

    F#m
You can't find one good thing to say

      D
And I hope that if I found the strength to walk out

                              E
You'd stay the hell out of my way

     D                            E
I am drowning there is no sign of land

                       A                   F#m
You're all coming down with me (yeah yeah) hand in unlovable hand

               A
And I hope you die

          E        A
I hope we both die
[Outro] C#m F# (2x) D E A
