D  D  A  A   (X 2)   

         D
I don't need you. I don't need you. 
           A
Besides I barely ever see you anymore,
D                                       
and when I do it feels like you're only 
A
  halfway there.
       D
Young mothers love me, even ghosts 
    A   
of girlfriends.
                                 D                          A
Call from Cleveland - they will meet me any time and everywhere.

D                       A
The day I die, day I die where will we be?
Em                      G             |  D  D  A  A  |  D  D  A  A  |
The day I die, day I die where will we be?

      D  
Don't do this, I don't this to you.
           A
And don't expect me to enjoy it.
        D
Because I really don't have the courage
        A
not to turn the volume up
           D
inside my ears. For years I used to put 
    A
my head inside
                     D
the speakers in the hallway
                             A
when you'd get too high and talk forever.

D                       A
The day I die, day I die where will we be?
Em                      G
The day I die, day I die where will we be?
D                       A
The day I die, day I die where will we be?
Em                      G
The day I die, day I die where will we be?


Bm  D  F#m  A  (X 5)


Bm                        D
I get little punchy with the vodka
          F#m                
just like my great uncle Valentine
A
Jester did.
Bm                         D
When he had to deal with those people
             F#m                   
like you who made no goddam
             A
common sense.
Bm                       D
I'd rather walk all the way home right 
          F#m                      
now than spend one more second 
A
in this place.
Bm                      D            F#m 
I'm exactly like you Valentine. Just come 
              A          |  D  D  A  A  |  D  D  A  A  |
outside and leave with me.

                D
Let's just get high enough to see our 
  A
problems.
                D
Let's just get high enough to see our 
 A
father's houses.

D                       A
The day I die, day I die where will we be?
Em                      G
The day I die, day I die where will we be?
D                       A
The day I die, day I die where will we be?
Em                      G              |  D  D  A  A  |  Em  Em  G  G  |
The day I die, day I die where will we be?
