Verse 1:
C majorC
 I never thought
FF
 I'd die alone
FF
 I laughed the loudest
who'd have known?
FF
 I traced the cord
back to the wall
FF
 No wonder it was never
plugged in at all
C majorC
 I took my time
FF
 I hurried up
FF
 The choice was mine
I didn't think enough
C majorC
 I'm too depressed
A minorAm
 to go on You'll
  FF
be sorry when
  FF
I'm gone


Refrain 1:
DmDm
 I never conquered
    A minorAm
rarely came
       FF
Sixteen just held
such better days
DmDm
 Days when I still
   A minorAm
felt alive
      FF
We couldn't wait
to get out..

Chorus 1:
  C majorC
...side The world was
A minorAm
wide too late to try
       FF
The tour was over
    C majorC
we'd survived
      DmDm
I couldn't wait
      A minorAm
till I got home
      FF
To pass the time
in my room alone

(Repeat Intro)


Verse 2:
FF
 I never thought
     A minorAm
I'd die alone
      FF
Another six months
I'll be unknown
FF
 Give all my things
     A minorAm
to all my friends
         FF
You'll never step foot
in my room again
C majorC
 You'll close it
A minorAm
off board it up
       FF
Remember the time that
I spilled the cup
FF
 Of apple juice
    A minorAm
in the hall
      FF
Please tell mom this
      DmDm
FF
is not her fault


(Repeat Refrain 1)

But tomorrow holds
such better days
DmDm
 Days when I can
      A minorAm
still feel alive
When I can't
FF
wait to get out...


Chorus 2:
  C majorC
...side The world is
A minorAm
wide the time goes by

The tour is over

till I get home
