[Verse]
No I donF't really want to dCie
I only wFant to die in your Ceyes
I'm still heFre below the chanCdeli er
Where they alwaFys used to read usC our rights
I want to wFander through the Cnight
As a figFure in the distance even to myC own eye
Have you Fever rented a roCom?
Have you evFen ever rented a Amroom?
[Chorus]
Dm An anchor lets you see the rGiver move
EmNow that your evil dreams came tAmrue
Dm There on your fGace
A row of Emteeth will come to Amreplace
[Verse]
I know you lFaughed
When I Cleft
But you Freally only hurtC yourself
You see youFr curtains move in the Cwind
You can beFt I'm betting against you Cagain
Cause I'm a Fman who has a wife who has a Cmother
Who married Fone but she loved aCnother
F C
You're a tower without the bells
You're a Fnegative wishingAm well
[Chorus]
Dm Should have checked the sGtable door
For the Emname of the sire and Amdame
Dm You were always at the dGog track
With your bEmrother and all his fAmriends
[Verse]
F Chalk lines around my Cbody
Like the sFhore line of a Clake
Your lauFghter made me Cnervous
It maFde your body shake toCo hard
Now there's a Flot of things that I'm gonnaC miss
Like thunFder down country and the wCay water drips
When you're ruFnning for the door in the Crain
FRead the metro section
FRead the metro section
FRead the metro section
See my Cname
[Chorus]
Dm No I didn't really want to Gdie
I only waEmnted to die in your Ameyes
Dm Grant me one Glast wish
Life should Emmean a lot less than Amthis
DmGrant me one last wGish
Life shouldEm mean a lot less than Amthis
