Am
We talked about making it.
E7
Iʼm sorry that you never made it.
Dm
And it pains me just to hear you have to say it.
F
You knew the game and played it,
Am
it kills to know that you have been defeated,
E7
I see the wires pulling while youʼre breathing.
Dm
You knew you had a reason, it killed you like diseases,
F
I can hear it in your voice while your speaking...
F
you canʼt be treated.
Am
Mr. know it all,
E7
had his reign and his fall,
Dm
At least that is
F
what his brain is telling all
Am
If he said help me kill the president,
E7
Iʼd say he needs medicine,
Dm
Sick of screaming let us in,
F
The wires got the best of him.
F
All that he invested in, goes
Am
Straight to hell,
E7
Straight to hell. (ooo, oooo)
Dm
Straight to hell,
F
FStraight to hell. (ooo, oooo)
Am
He told me I should take it in,
E7
Listen to every word heʼs speaking,
Dm
The wires getting older
F
I can hear the way theyʼre creaking,
Am
As theyʼre holding him,
E7
Well, I could see it in his jaw,
Dm
That all he ever wanted was a job,
F
He tells me to be, raw, admits to every little flaw,
Am
That never let him sit upon the top,
E7
Wonʼt tell me to stop,
Dm
Thinks that I should be a little cautious.
F
Well, I can tell the wires pulled
Am
If he said help me kill the president,
E7
Iʼd say he needs medicine,
Dm
Sick of screaming let us in,
F
The wires got the best of him.
F
All that he invested in, goes
Am
Straight to hell,
E7
Straight to hell. (ooo, oooo)
Dm
Straight to hell,
F
FStraight to hell. (ooo, oooo)
Am
Iʼm having trouble in believing,
E7
And I just started seeing,
Dm
Light at the beginning of the tunnel,
F
but he tells me that Iʼm dreaming,
Am
When he talks I hear his ghosts,
E7
every word they say to me,
Dm
I just pray the wires
F
arenʼt coming (here to strangle me)
Am
If he said help me kill the president,
E7
Iʼd say he needs medicine,
Dm
Sick of screaming let us in,
F
The wires got the best of him.
F
All that he invested in, goes
Am
Straight to hell,
E7
Straight to hell. (ooo, oooo)
Dm
Straight to hell,
F
FStraight to hell. (ooo, oooo)
