Chords with lyrics

[Verse]
B minorBm                 G+G
I've made up my mind and I will be leaving.
        A augmentedA                  F# minorF#m
Leaving this cruel, dark world for the soulless to share.
F# minorF#m
But first...
      B minorBm
Women will shriek and watch their husbands bleed.
       G+G
Children will cry and watch their mothers die.
     A augmentedA
Because tonight...
           F#sus4F#sus4
Tonight we all go to hell!
F#F#
Why?
B minorBm
I have to let go of what happened to my love.
G+G                           A augmentedA
I am taking out on everyone else all the problems I've brought on myself.
When I made your heart melt.
 F# minorF#m
My belle, we soon will meet again.

[Pre-Chorus]
G+G               A augmentedA      B minorBm
There's nothing left for me to lose except confusion.
                        F# minorF#m
I'm finished trying to tell myself this will go away.
G+G               A augmentedA
There's no one left to talk me down.
B minorBm
My feet are slipping...

[Chorus]
B minorBm      A augmentedA                G+G
One day I'll hope my name doesn't bring back memories.
   A augmentedA     Bb majorBb
Of the day that I left her.
B minorBm     A augmentedA
Goodbye, so long.
         G+G       A augmentedA    Bb majorBb
My heart belongs to the one I am chasing after.
G+G       A augmentedA       F# minorF#m
For better, or even for worse, remember me forever...

[Verse 2]
B minorBm              G+G
Now the only question left is how to take you all down with me.
A augmentedA
The coroner will have his hands full tonight.
F# minorF#m
That is if he is not among the dead.
B minorBm                   G+G
Dead will choke the streets with such vulgarity that grown men will weep.
A augmentedA             F# minorF#m
And then you will find the end is drawing night.

[Pre-Chorus]
G+G               A augmentedA      B minorBm
There's nothing left for me to lose except confusion.
                        F# minorF#m
I'm finished trying to tell myself this will go away.
G+G               A augmentedA
There's no one left to talk me down.
B minorBm
My feet are slipping...

[Chorus]
B minorBm      A augmentedA                G+G
One day I'll hope my name doesn't bring back memories.
   A augmentedA     Bb majorBb
Of the day that I left her.
B minorBm     A augmentedA
Goodbye, so long.
         G+G       A augmentedA    Bb majorBb
My heart belongs to the one I am chasing after.
G+G       A augmentedA       F# minorF#m
For better, or even for worse, remember me...

[Bridge]
G+G            A augmentedA
The dizziness stuns me, would someone please distract me?
B minorBm
Can I really get through this?
B minorBm
Can I really betray myself?
B minorBm
For better or worse, remember forever

G+G            A augmentedA
The dizziness stuns me, would someone please distract me?
(There's sweat on my hands and a knife at my throat.)
B minorBm
Can I really get through this?
(And as the blade bites my skin)
B minorBm
Can I really betray myself?
(Annabel appears...)
N.C.
For better or worse, remember me forever

[Chorus]
B minorBm      A augmentedA                G+G
One day I'll hope my name doesn't bring back memories.
   A augmentedA     Bb majorBb
Of the day that I left her.
B minorBm     A augmentedA
Goodbye, so long.
         G+G       A augmentedA    Bb majorBb
My heart belongs to the one I am chasing after.
G+G       A augmentedA       F# minorF#m         B minorBm
