C          E 
F        Am  G 

C          E           F 
 Countless suicide attempts 
            Am G         C 
And all his money was spent 
         E             F 
Chewing gum and cigarettes 
             Am G         C 
To keep his knees from shaking 
           E                 F      Am G    C 
He never thought before you spoke 
           E                F       Am G    C 
Took back everything you meant 
      E            F 
And from an early age 
               Am G          C 
You learned to inhale and forget 
             E               F 
And who are you? And who are we? 
   Am G            C 
Photographs and diaries 
            E            F 
Spend your life working hard 
           Am G     C 
Spend your life studying 
              E                F 
And then you die. And then you die 
           Am G             C 
And then we read all your books 
              E                 F 
And then you die. And then you die 
              Am G          C 
And then we criticize your work 

E   F   Am G 

E 
You figured it out 
                      F     G   E 
You figured me out so good 
E 
I know you want it 
               F    G   E 
They said you would 
E 
You're getting to close 
                 F       G   E 
And it's all too much 
E 
Afraid of 
           F       G (mute strum) 
The human touch 
C          E              F     Am G  C 
Give the kids all their candy 
           E          F        Am G   C 
Whatever makes them happy 
         E                   F       Am G  C 
Give me seeds and I'll plant trees 
         E        F 
Learn from your mistakes  
            Am G             C 
My parents never learned from me 
       E               F 
And blasphemy on the walls 
       Am G           C 
Of the bathroom you wrote 
        E                F 
God is gay and no one cares, 
        Am G        C 
Even if you left a note 
        E               F 
Your suicide will go unheard 
          Am G         C 
Maybe 'cos you never spoke 
          E         F 
You were a wallflower 
           Am G     C 
You were my only hope 
              E             F 
Your songs never left your room 
          Am G          C 
You never showed your poetry 
          E               F 
Don't you die, don't you die 
          Am G         C 
Don't you dare die on me 

E     F     Am G    

E 
You figured it out you 
                        F      G   E 
You figured me out so good 
E 
I know you want it,  
                F       G   E 
They said you would 
E 
We're getting too close,  
                 F       G  E 
And it's all too much 
E 
Afraid of 
            F     G (mute strum) 
The human touch 

C         E               F 
Give the kids all their chrystal 
Am G    C 
Oh god no 
            E              F    Am G   C 
Make them hate, give them pistols   
        E                F       Am G   C 
Fight a war but don't ask why 
     E                   F        Am G   
And oh my boy you're too young to die 


Dm                G 
And what do you know 
               Am 
About where we go 
               F 
After all of this 
                Dm 
Spent my life wondering 
                  G 
But still don't know 
                 Am 
Why we have to exist 
                  F 
To be anything at all 
                  Dm 
Is beautiful I guess 
                  G            Am      F 
But I still don't know if I like it 
Dm                     G 
You unbuttoned your dress 
                    Am 
And you gave me a kiss 
                    F 
I'm gonna learn to forget 
                     G 
You gotta learn to forget 

C     E     F     Am G   E 

E  
You figured it out 
                       F      G    E 
You figured me out so good 
E 
I know you want it  
                 F      G   E 
They said you would 
E            
You're getting too close 
                   F      G   E 
And it's all too much 
E 
Afraid of 
            F    G  (mute strum) 
The human touch 

C    E    F    Am G  (repeat however much you want) 
end on C
