C# minorC#m - BB – A augmentedA (quickly)
      A minorAm


Verse One:

E MajorE – BB C# minorC#m
     So
I've made up my mind
A augmentedA       BB      C# minorC#m             E MajorE
   I will pretend to leave this world behind
    BB   C# minorC#m
And in the end, you'll know I've lied
 A augmentedA          BB
To get your attention
G# minorG#m C# minorC#m – BB – A augmentedA A minorAm
I'm faking my own suicide

Chorus:

     E MajorE   BB     C# minorC#m
I'm faking my own suicide
   A augmentedA              E MajorE
Because I know you love me
         A augmentedA     BB
You just haven't realized
    E MajorE    BB      C# minorC#m
I'm faking my own suicide
       A augmentedA          BB
They'll hold a double funeral
        G# minorG#m          C# minorC#m    BB       A augmentedA
Because a part of you will die   along  with me
        A minorAm
It’s kinda sweet

Verse Two:

E MajorE – BB C# minorC#m
 I wish you thought that I was dead
 A augmentedA          BB     C# minorC#m           E MajorE
So rather than me you'd be depressed instead
      BB    C# minorC#m
 And before arriving at my grave
       A augmentedA         BB
You'd come to the conclusion
      G# minorG#m           C# minorC#m
You'd loved me all your days
    BB     A augmentedA
But it's too late
               A minorAm
Too late for you to say

Chorus:

          E MajorE   BB     C# minorC#m
Cause I'm faking my own suicide
   A augmentedA              E MajorE
Because I know you love me
         A augmentedA     BB
You just haven't realized
    E MajorE    BB      C# minorC#m
I'm faking my own suicide
       A augmentedA          BB
They'll hold a double funeral
        G# minorG#m          C# minorC#m    BB       A augmentedA A minorAm
Because a part of you will die   along  with me

Verse Three:

 E MajorE      BB   C# minorC#m
I'll write you a letter that you'll keep
   A augmentedA             BB         C# minorC#m             E MajorE
Reminding you your love for me is more than six feet deep
        BB          C# minorC#m
You say aloud that you would have been my wife
  A augmentedA            BB      G# minorG#m           C# minorC#m     BB A augmentedA
Right about that time is when I come back to life  and let you know
         A minorAm
I'd let you know

Chorus:

                   E MajorE   BB C# minorC#m
That all along I was faking my own suicide
   A augmentedA              E MajorE
Because I know you love me
         A augmentedA     BB
You just never realized
       E MajorE   BB      C# minorC#m
I was faking my own suicide
 A augmentedA            BB            G# minorG#m          C# minorC#m
I'll walk in that room and see your eyes opened so wide
   BB      A augmentedA
Opened so wide
           A minorAm
Because you know

Outro:

            E MajorE           A augmentedA BB
Because you know you will never leave my side
         E MajorE      A augmentedA           BB
Until the day that I die for the first time
          E MajorE             A augmentedA             BB
And we'll laugh, yeah we'll laugh, and we will cry
       E MajorE         A augmentedA         BB
So overjoyed at our love that's so alive
             E MajorE
Our love is so alive
