Intro
G#
[Verse]
G# C
It turns out cigarettes can kill you, 'cause when you didn't come back
C# D#
every time that I thought of you, I smoked a whole pack
G# C
I was up to about seventeen packs a day, I was refueling too
C# D# D#7
about every hour or so, I drank a bottle of white mule
G# C
I wasn't thinking about turquoise, I wasn't thinking about gold
C# D# D#7
I wasn't thinking about thinking, or about getting old
G# C
got to be so I didn't care if I was leaving or loving
C# D# D#7
oh, what I was and what I was becoming
[Chorus]
G#
I don't want to die in your arms
G#7 Fm6 C#
I just wannna die
G#
don't want to die in you arms
G#7 Fm6 C#
I just want to die
[Verse]
G# C
And, like a marionette doll, on man by a fool
C# D#
I went in, to the chicken shed, started looking for tools
G# C
Well I went for a month, filled some sky and some clouds
C# D# D#7
And I built myself some angels, with trumpets so loud
G# C
Well they played hallelujah, and I knew I was done
C# D# D#7
I walked through a golden gate with pearl inlays, saw a never setting sun
G# C
Well I knew I was dead, I couldn't do no more harm
C# D# D#7
Well I built myself a heaven, where you died in my arms
[Chorus]
G#
I don't want to die in your arms
G#7 Fm6 C#
I just wannna die
G#
don't want to die in you arms
G#7 Fm6 C#
I just want to die
