When I Die
The Thermals
D#mD#m 
G# minorG#m C# minorC#m 
F#F#
The Earth was too hot, The air was too thin
D#mD#m G# minorG#m C# minorC#m F#F#
I took off my clothes, I took off my skin
D#mD#m G# minorG#m C# minorC#m F#F# E MajorE
I crawled to the sea that was calling for me so I could swim...
F#F#
Yeah, so I could swim!
BB F#F# E MajorE F#F# x2
BB [C# minorC#m] BB F#F#
BB F#F# E MajorE F#F#
I was sick of the land, I was sick from the heat,
BB F#F# E MajorE F#F#
I was sick of the sun and the sky and the trees,
BB [C# minorC#m]
Over the air that I needed to breathe
F#F#
When I held with my hands, when I walked on my feet
BB F#F# E MajorE F#F#
I took off my clothes, I took off my skin
BB F#F# E MajorE F#F#
Started shedding my arms to start getting my fins
BB [C# minorC#m] BB
Crawled to the sea that was calling for me so I could swim,
F#F#
Swim the ocean wide
G# minorG#m C# minorC#m F#F#
I was only just past the low tide
BB [E MajorE]
When I died
BB [E MajorE]
When I died
BB
Yeah, when I died
[
C#C#]
My head did swell
BB
I said to myself
F#F#
Nature sure took her sweet time
G# minorG#m C# minorC#m F#F#
I was already losing my spine
BB F#F# E MajorE F#F#
I was sick with horror when my curtain fell
BB F#F# E MajorE F#F#
It's the end of the story I was certain to tell
BB [C# minorC#m]
Watching their faces as they pulled me from the sea
F#F#
Feeling for the place I thought my gills would be
BB F#F# E MajorE F#F#
Busted and wrecked, justly infected
BB F#F# E MajorE F#F#
My body beyond repair
BB [C# minorC#m]
Had no objection, sir, my only questions were
F#F#
Where do I go and will I know when I'm there?
G# minorG#m C# minorC#m F#F#
But I really couldn't say that I cared
BB [E MajorE]
When I died
BB [E MajorE]
When I died
BB
Yeah, when I died
[C#C#]
My head did swell
BB
I said to myself
F#F#
Nature sure took her sweet time

(I was already losing my spine
D#mD#m G# minorG#m C# minorC#m F#F#
If life was short, at least it was short)
D#mD#m G# minorG#m C# minorC#m F#F#
The Earth was too hot, The air was too thin
D#mD#m G# minorG#m C# minorC#m F#F#
I took off my clothes, I took off my skin
