E minorEm - A minorAm - C majorC
E minorEm - A minorAm - C majorC - C majorC
E minorEm - A minorAm


E minorEm      A minorAm
Push it away
   C majorC      E minorEm      A minorAm C majorC
Heart cold in the land of gray
E minorEm       A minorAm
Suck it all in
  C majorC       E minorEm   A minorAm C majorC
I'm watching them cringe
E minorEm         A minorAm
Damn, what a waste
     C majorC      E minorEm       A minorAm C majorC
The boy's got that prescription taste
   E minorEm     A minorAm
He's dying away
C majorC      E minorEm
Look at 'em fade
   A minorAm    C majorC
There has to be another way

E minorEm      A minorAm  C majorC
The aftermath is devastating
E minorEm         A minorAm C majorC
Writing, leave me, medicating
  E minorEm           A minorAm    C majorC
The hating, the horror that haunts my day
  E minorEm          A minorAm    C majorC   E minorEm
If I can get a chance to brush off this decay
        E minorEm         E minorEm       A minorAm
Who gives a f***, gimme what I need, another dose


E minorEm     C majorC     D MajorD
And I stop shaking tonight
            E minorEm
Pull myself up off the floor
        C majorC  D MajorD
Kneel down and exercise
               E minorEm
Prepare for what's in store
      C majorC    D MajorD
And I stop shaking tonight
            E minorEm
Pull myself up off the floor
        C majorC  D MajorD
Kneel down and exercise
I'm resurrecting

E minorEm      A minorAm
Lock it away
      C majorC    E minorEm        A minorAm C majorC
Beneath the pain, beneath the insane
E minorEm       A minorAm
Take it all in
  C majorC       E minorEm  A minorAm C majorC
And I'll take the blame
E minorEm         A minorAm
Pushing the grace
  C majorC     E minorEm        A minorAm C majorC
The cancer radiates in her face
  E minorEm       A minorAm
You ruined my stay
    C majorC      E minorEm
So I'll destroy the faith
   A minorAm    C majorC
There has to be another way


E minorEm       A minorAm  C majorC
I'm in the rubble, contemplating
  E minorEm
The pills that thrill
  A minorAm    C majorC
Killing, not aiding
  E minorEm           A minorAm    C majorC
The hating, the horror that haunts my day
  E minorEm         A minorAm
If I could get another chance
       C majorC       E minorEm
I'd probably throw it away
        E minorEm         E minorEm       A minorAm
Who gives a f***, gimme what I need, another dose
E minorEm       E minorEm       E minorEm
I'll resurrect for all to see
         A minorAm
And death to those who've forsaken me


E minorEm     C majorC     D MajorD
And I stop shaking tonight
            E minorEm
Pull myself up off the floor
        C majorC  D MajorD
Kneel down and exercise
               E minorEm
Prepare for what's in store
      C majorC    D MajorD
And I stop shaking tonight
            E minorEm
Pull myself up off the floor
        C majorC  D MajorD
Kneel down and exercise


E minorEm - D MajorD - C majorC - BB  x2


E minorEm    D MajorD       C majorC
Dead man walking, baby
         BB
I call 'em how I see 'em
E minorEm          D MajorD      C majorC
Killin' time, killin' pain, baby
          BB
But instead you're killin' me


Solo:

E minorEm - G+G - A minorAm - C majorC - D MajorD  x2


E minorEm         G+G
Back away from the pain
   A minorAm        A minorAm
It's insane and I will throw away
    C majorC      D MajorD
All the things that sting
  E minorEm        G+G
So back away, it's okay
     A minorAm          A minorAm
You're a stain and now you'll rot away
   C majorC  D MajorD
It's sickening


Solo:

C majorC - D MajorD

E minorEm     C majorC     D MajorD
And I stop shaking tonight
            E minorEm
Pull myself up off the floor
        C majorC  D MajorD
Kneel down and exercise
               E minorEm
Prepare for what's in store
      C majorC    D MajorD
And I stop shaking tonight
            E minorEm
Pull myself up off the floor
        C majorC  D MajorD
Kneel down and exercise


E minorEm     C majorC     D MajorD
And I stop shaking tonight
            E minorEm
Pull myself up off the floor
        C majorC  D MajorD
Kneel down and exercise
               E minorEm
Prepare for what's in store
      C majorC    D MajorD
And I stop shaking tonight
            E minorEm
Pull myself up off the floor
        C majorC  D MajorD   E MajorE
Kneel down and exercise
