CAPO: 1st FRET

INTRO: D

VERSE:
 D                    A           G
This is for all my friends and family.

Something I need you to understand.
         Bm
The accident,
                             G
The overdose,the suicide whatever it was.
                              E
Malpractice, the homicide, etcetera.
                                   G
Something took me sooner than we planned.



PRE-CHORUS:
F#m                 D    A  G
   Now take these steps for me.
                          A
It might not be what you wanted,
                 G
But it's what I need.


CHORUS:
       Bm
No funeral.
                                         G
There's not a goddamn dime you need to spend.
                                      E
I won't be there to thank you in the end.
                              G
Put me in the ground to decompose
                            D
And inside of your heart always.


INSTRUMENTAL:
D    A    Em     Bm   G    D


BREAK:
  D                  Em     Bm
This is for all my friends.
 D             E        Bm   D
Who are these motherfuckers?
 D     A    G   Bm  D
Behind my eyes,
 G          A
they never knew me in (life).
E
No. no casket please.
F#m
I'll rot out with the leaves.
G
No, clothes for me to wear.

The dirt won't care.
         E
Don't, scatter any ashes.
 F#
Scatter all my things
     G
To, the deserving ones who really need.
E
No, production here,
F#
So assholes walk around
                                 G
and try to get your sympathy and say,

"I'm glad it wasn't me."


CHORUS:
               Bm
And with that said,
                            G
don't say a prayer for me today.
                                     E
God and I, we never really spoke anyway.
                                       G
I tried sometimes, but he never wrote back.
       Bm
And I know
                                 G
there's no headstone where I'm lying.
                                E
So where do you go when you're crying?
      Bm                    G
Just hold on to a memory of me
