Verse
Dm C Dm
Folks you'd think I'd be happy and delighted
Dm C Dm
Cause all my dreams are finally coming true
Dm C Dm
But did I mention all my dreams are nightmares
Dm C Dm
In my head I feel a storm about to brew
[Verse 2]
Dm C Dm
The clouds are hovering a mean blue and purple
Dm C Dm
No sunshine in my life anymore
Dm C Dm
The spirits are creepin' 'round every corner
Dm C Dm C
I'm petrified but I'm unlockin' my door
[Chorus]
Dm A# Dm C
So long cruel world (so long cruel world)
Dm A# Dm C
Dear mother goodbye (dear mother goodbye)
G
These are the only words I say before I die
[Verse 3]
Dm C
I want an old man priest
Dm C
And a stormy day
Dm C
But don't waste money on a casket
Dm C
I don't deserve a grave
Dm C
Just cut out my organs
Dm C
Give 'em to the barely livin'
Dm C
Turn my body into ashes
Dm C
And pray my soul's forgiven
[Chorus]
Dm A# Dm C
So long cruel world (so long cruel world)
Dm A# Dm C
Dear mother goodbye (dear mother goodbye)
G
Time is come to pay for what I've done
Dm C
So goodbye
Dm C
Goodbye
[Verse 4]
Dm C Dm
I hear the cracklin' of the thunder
Dm C Dm
And though my name's not on the list
Dm C Dm
I'll sport a sharkskin and a splash of aqua velva
Dm C Dm C
I'll do a dance of death, give me that kiss
[Outro]
Dm A# Dm C
So long cruel world (so long cruel world)
Dm A# Dm C
Dear mother don't cry (dear mother don't cry)
Dm A# Dm C
Oh lo oh lo oh lo
Dm A# Dm C
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Dm A# Dm C
Yadda yadda yadda ah
Dm A# Dm C
Oh no no no no
Dm A# Dm C
So long cruel world (so long cruel world)
Dm A# Dm C
Dear mother goodbye (dear mother goodbye)
G
Time is come to pay for what I've done
Dm C
So goodbye
Dm C
Goodbye
