Bm
What's my problem?

                                   F#m
Well, I want you to follow me down to the bottom, underneath the insane asylum

A
Keep your wits about you while you got 'em

                     E
'Cause your wits are first to go while you're problem-solving

           G
And my problem?

                       G
We glorify those, even more, when they

My opinion, our culture can treat a loss

Like it's a win and right before we turn on them

   A                                                      E
We give them the highest of praise, and hang their banner from a ceiling

                         G
Communicating, further engraving

                                G
An earlier grave is an optional way, no
[Chorus]

A     E
Call

Call
[Verse 2]
Bm
What's my problem? Don't get it twisted

              F#m
It's with the people we praise who may have assisted

        A
I could use the streams and extra conversations

        E
I could give up, and boost up my reputation

        G
I could go out with a bang, they would know my name

G
They would host and post a celebration

Bm
My opinion will not be lenient

F#m
My opinion, it's real convenient

    A
Our words are loud, but now I'm talking action

         E
We don't get enough love? Well, they get a fraction

           G
They say, "How could he go if he's got everything?"

     G
I'll mourn for a kid, but won't cry for a king
[Chorus]
Bm                      F#m

Neon gravestones try to call for my bones (Neon gravestones try to call)

G
Call (For my bones)

G          (A)
Call, call, call
[Bridge]
A
Promise me this

     Bm
If I lose to myself

    Em6/G
You won't mourn a day

           D
And you'll move onto someone else

A
Promise me this

     Bm
If I lose to myself

    Em6/G
You won't mourn a day

           D
And you'll move onto someone else
[Interlude]

Neon gravestones try to call (Neon gravestones try to call)

Em6/G                   D
Neon gravestones try to call for my bones

A                       Bm
Neon gravestones try to call (Neon gravestones try to call)

Em6/G                   D
Neon gravestones try to call for my bones
[Bridge]
         A
But they won't get them

         Bm
No, they won't get them

     Em6/G
They won't get them

         D
But they won't get them
[Verse 3]
A
Don't get me wrong, the rise in awareness

   Bm
Is beating a stigma that no longer scares us

        Em6/G
But for sake of discussion, in spirit of fairness

         D
Could we give this some room for a new point of view?

     A
And, could it be true that some could be tempted

   Bm
To use this mistake as a form of aggression?

  Em6/G
A form of succession? A form of a weapon?

          D
Thinking "I'll teach them", well, I'm refusing the lesson

   A
It won't resonate in our minds

    Bm
I'm not disrespecting what was left behind

     Em6/G
Just pleading that "it" does not get glorified

         D
Maybe we swap out what it is that we hold so high

A
Find your grandparents or someone of age

Bm
Pay some respects for the path that they paved

   Em6/G
To life, they were dedicated

     D
Now, that should be celebrated
