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

Time is come to pay for what I've done

So goodbye

Goodbye
