Intro: Db Bbm Ab A B

Verse 1:
        Db                       Bbm
By the time you'd have woven the casket
      Db
The sheets will have started to smell
        Db                     Bbm
By the time you'd remember the windows
      Ab         A          B        Db
The insects will be kissing me farewell

Pre-chorus:
Db                      Gb
You'd never stomach me in the closet

Like all those rooms you'd never clean

Darling, there's no better hatchet to bury than me

Chorus:
     Gb             Db
So, let's throw my garden party
 B                       Db
You promised roses, but gave me thorns
Db
You'd leave me rotting 'til summer's over
A               B       Db
Guess I'll be digging alone

Interlude: Db A B Db

Verse 2:
        Db                     Bbm
By the time you'd remember my favorite dress
            Db            Bbm
You'd have put me in yours
        Db                          Bbm
By the time you'd be asking for makeup
     Bb        A          B       Db
My body would be halfway out the door

B                           Gb
You never bothered showing up in your best
         Db                       Eb
'Cause who'd wanna dirty their sleeves?

Darling, there's no better hatchet to bury than me

If you wanted to kill me

Guess it takes one to know

You never bothered with any respect

You won't treat my death differently
