    E
I'm so tired

        A
Of your lies

        D
And the evil things

               B       E
You're doing behind my back

          D
Are there crimes

                      B
That you have never committed?

I doubt it, sometimes I wonder

              E
When will you die?
[Verse 2]
         E
You're insane

        A
You are bad

          D
You wreck everything you touch

             B    E
And you're a sociopath

            D
But there's one thing

On which we celebrate (yeaah)
[Verse 3]

I know how

I know why

      D
I can picture every part

          B            E
Of your comeuppance, except

        D
For the one remaining
Piece of the puzzle
         E           A     E
Which is when you'll die
[Interlude] | F#m | C#m | D | B E | [Verse 4]
        E
This is Dan

           A-
And that's Dan

           D
And that's Marty on the drums

      B         E
To complete the band

        D
And I'm John

               B
And he is also John

                  G
And all of us are wondering

                  E
When you're gonna die
[Verse 5]
          E
Still you live

       A
You go on

           D
But you're running out the clock

          B        E
And if we knew how long

       D
I'd be counting down the days

          B
Until the lovely one

   E            A      E  D  E
On which you're gone
[Bridge 2]
D       E        A
On that promised morning

B       D        E         A     B
We will wake and greet the dawn

D       E         A      B       G
Knowing that your wicked life is over

         B            E
And that we will carry on
[Verse 6]
        E
We'll exhale

           A
We'll high five

        D
We will know at last

                   B   E
How great it is to be alive

         D
We'll be lining up

           B
And buying tickets

                  G
And then we'll be jumping

                    E
Up and down on your grave
[Verse 7]
         E
You're insane

       A
You are bad

          D
You wreck everything you touch

             B    E
And you're a sociopath

        D               B
And the only way to mitigate

            E         D
Would be to know the date
You're scheduled to vacate
             E        D
When are you going to die?

               B
Look me in the eye

        E           A
Tell me when you'll die
