A2 
It's time I said this 
                                                 F#m 
But I'm so choked up and I need my sanity 
       D2                                E                             A2 
I'm scared, believe me, you can see me smile if you let me just stick around. 

A2 
Well this is bye-bye baby 
                                     F#m 
It isn't like a sudden stop on a freight train 
     D2                               E                             A2 
If you're not happy and you hurt this much, then let me just stick around. 

                  D2                                          E 
But can I have one second of your time? 
                                       D2 
If I don't it'll drive me crazy. 
                                                    E 
As I drop to my knees and scream, 
I hate you more than you could know. 

A2      
I hope you fall into the ocean 
E                                                  E/F                                F#m 
And the current leaves you helpless, swimming around 
                                      E             D2              E 
As the waves crash over you until you drown.  
(And fall away..) 
A2 
And hold a funeral for nothing 
E                                            E/F                               F#m 
And celebrate how empty love can be broken 
                      E                      D2                 E                   A2 
It takes the sea to put you six feet happily underground 

A2 
Now it's back to reality  
                                              F#m 
I'm up in shambles but I guess that's how I should be 
                                                          D2                               E 
I knew the wedding bells were ringing well, but my bride was missing. 

                                     A2 
It's not supposed to hurt this much 
                                                   F#m 
But when someone slowly breaks it off 
                                            D2                           E                  A2 
It tends to leave a bitter taste, a scar, that slowly rips apart. 

               D2                                         E 
Could I have one second of your time? 
                                       D2 
If I don't, it'll drive me crazy. 
                                                    E 
As I drop to my knees and scream,  
I hate you more than you could know. 


A2      
I hope you fall into the ocean 
E                                                  E/F                                F#m 
And the current leaves you helpless, swimming around 
                                      E             D2              E 
As the waves crash over you until you drown.  
(And fall away..) 
A2 
And hold a funeral for nothing 
E                                            E/F                               F#m 
And celebrate how empty love can be broken 
                      E                      D2                 E                   A2 
It takes the sea to put you six feet happily underground 

F#m  D2 
               F#m    D2 
Underground.. 

F#m 
I've had enough, but it's all for the best. 
E 
I need to get a few things off my chest. 
C#m    
There's got to be another way I can say it, 
           D2                 E 
But to get it right, I have to think straight. 
F#m 
Hope he tastes like the way I used to taste. 
E                                                                  C#m 
I can't believe I'd even say this to you now. 
             D2              E           A2 
When you won't listen at all. 

A2      
I hope you fall into the ocean 
E                                                  E/F                                F#m 
And the current leaves you helpless, swimming around 
                                      E                     D2              E 
As the waves crash over you and over you until you drown.  
A2 
And hold a funeral for nothing 
E                                            E/F                               F#m 
And celebrate how empty love can be broken 
                      E                      D2                 E                   
It takes the sea to put you six feet happily underground 
F#m             E                       D2                Dm                 A2 
It takes the sea to put you six feet happily underground.
