Verse 1:
C majorC A minorAm
Let me guide you through the story of a boy and his curse
C majorC A minorAm DmDm
Tiny diamond in his stroller with his first step chasing the hearse
G+G
Sippin' at a cup that's half way filled
E minorEm G+G
But looking forward to the day he pays that drinking bill
C majorC A minorAm C majorC
There's no peace, there's no quiet on this earth
A minorAm
He confided, nestled tightly in that womb beneath the dirt
FF G+G
Hurt no more and when he turned 24
E minorEm C majorC G+G
He wrote a note to nail to God's front door that said
Chorus:
C majorC
I want death
Death for my birthday
FF
I want death
Death in the worst way
C majorC
I want death
FF
Death for my birthday
Don't get me wrong cause..
A minorAm
I love life
But life has a boyfriend
G+G
Bless my soul
I'm out to destroy them
C majorC
I want death
FF
Death for my birthday
FF F FF
Verse 2:
C majorC
From the high paying job and the love of his life
A minorAm
He rode a roller coaster ride of lust on their wedding night
DmDm G+G
They made a baby in unmentionable ways
E minorEm FF G+G C majorC
He was ungrateful as a man could be on that blessed day
A minorAm
And underneath he thought this is all a phase
Just a blip in the existence of a structure vast and great
DmDm G+G
Pray each night to his cross of a charm
E minorEm FF G+G
For the one thing he couldn't afford just to buy the farm
Chorus:
C majorC
I want death
Death for my birthday
FF
I want death
Death in the worst way
C majorC
I want death
FF
Death for my birthday
Don't get me wrong cause..
A minorAm
I love life
But life has a boyfriend
G+G
Bless my soul
I'm out to destroy them
C majorC
I want death
FF
Death for my birthday
FF FF FF
Bridge:
C majorC FF
I'll never lose another friend again
C majorC FF
Or watch them start a war that's fought for ideals that are dead
G+G
I'll never have an argument again
FF
Because my dust
C majorC
will be your salt
FF C majorC FF
My blood will hydrate you all
G+G A minorAm
My heart will be your meal
C majorC FF
And I won't ride the cycle of the way it kills to think and feel
No more, no
Chorus:
C majorC
I want death
Death for my birthday
FF
I want death
Death in the worst way
C majorC
I want death
FF
Death for my birthday
Don't get me wrong cause..
A minorAm
I love life
But life has a boyfriend
G+G
Bless my soul
I'm out to destroy them
C majorC
I want death
FF
Death for my birthday
C majorC FF
One sweet day his heart ceased to beat
C majorC
He fell so fast beneath all our feet
Through bugs and snakes
FF C majorC
Last words he had to say were
A minorAm C majorC
Help me claw my way to the surface
Oh sweet lord you know I deserve this
FF
