G                  C               Em 
I was on my way to heaven when you died 
      C             D                  G          Em 
I was racing up the express lane I was cheating HOV lanes 
G              C              Em 
Made it to the gate in record timing 
  C                D                 G              Em 
I quickly threw my hazards on, don't bother finding parking 
      Am                       G 
I was on my to heaven when you died 


G                    C              Em 
And I was dressed in all black in a hoax 
     C            D                  G                  Em 
That nobody would notice me, and the bolt cutters I was hiding 
G             C          Em 
Underneath my over sized jacket 
  C                D                  G                           Em 
I snuck around the back and broke you out when the guards weren't looking 
      Am                       G        G/F# 
I was on my to heaven when you died 


Em                   C                   D 
But then it was all over, they got us surrounded 
                          G             G/F# 
They beat us with batons, cuffed us and threw us in the car 
Em          C                    D 
When I wake up I wanna talk to a lawyer 
           G     G/F#      C 
I demand a fair speedy trial 


Em              D 
Where do people go when they die? 
G                     C 
How do you keep them alive? 
Em                        D                        G            C

       D 
Not to any other any other friends 

G 

    Bm           Em            D          G 
But oh how can a perfect human run out of luck 
                     C                           Em 
When there's just so many other people screaming jive 
    Bm           Em                D                      G 
And oh I can not help but fear the things that I can't control 
                C                      Em 
The things I'll never ever know 


Em              D
