Intro:
   Dbm Dbsus2 A Gb -x2-
   Gb  Ab
   Db
 
Verse:
Db                    Ab
I hope that our few remaining friends
Gb                    Db
Give up on trying to save us
  Db                      Ab
I hope we come up with a failsafe plot
        Gb                        Db
To piss off the dumb few that forgave us
Db                    Ab
I hope the fences we mended
Gb                           Ab
Fall down beneath their own weight
      Db                        Bbm
And I hope we hang on past the last exit
  Gb                     Ab
I hope it's already too late
    Db                                          Bbm
And I hope the junkyard a few blocks from here
 
Someday burns down
    Gb
And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away
                 Ab                  Gb
And I never come back to this town again
 
Chorus:
      Ab             Db
In my life I hope I lie
         Bbm
And tell everyone you were a good wife
               Db
And I hope you die
          Ab         Db
I hope we both die
 
Interlude:
   Fm  Bb  -x2-
   Gb  Ab
   Db
 
Verse:
Db                   Ab
I hope I cut myself shaving tomorrow
Gb                        Db
I hope it bleeds all day long
    Db                          Ab
Our friends say it's darkest before the sun rises
     Gb                             Db
Well we're pretty sure they're all wrong
Db                       Ab
I hope it stays dark forever
Gb                      Ab
I hope the worst isn't over
    Db                       Bbm
And I hope you blink before I do
  Gb                Ab
I hope I never get sober
      Db
And I hope when you think of me years down the line
    Bbm
You can't find one good thing to say
      Gb
And I hope that if I found the strength to walk out
                              Ab
You'd stay the hell out of my way
 
Chorus:
     Gb                            Ab
I am drowning there is no sign of land
                    Db
You are coming down with me
Bbm
hand in unlovable hand
               Db
And I hope you die
          Ab        Db
I hope we both die
