Intro
G
[Verse]
G B
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 B
I was up to about seventeen packs a day, I was refueling too
C D D7
about every hour or so, I drank a bottle of white mule
G B
I wasn't thinking about turquoise, I wasn't thinking about gold
C D D7
I wasn't thinking about thinking, or about getting old
G B
got to be so I didn't care if I was leaving or loving
C D D7
oh, what I was and what I was becoming
[Chorus]
G
I don't want to die in your arms
G7 Em6 C
I just wannna die
G
don't want to die in you arms
G7 Em6 C
I just want to die
[Verse]
G B
And, like a marionette doll, on man by a fool
C D
I went in, to the chicken shed, started looking for tools
G B
Well I went for a month, filled some sky and some clouds
C D D7
And I built myself some angels, with trumpets so loud
G B
Well they played hallelujah, and I knew I was done
C D D7
I walked through a golden gate with pearl inlays, saw a never setting sun
G B
Well I knew I was dead, I couldn't do no more harm
C D D7
Well I built myself a heaven, where you died in my arms
[Chorus]
G
I don't want to die in your arms
G7 Em6 C
I just wannna die
G
don't want to die in you arms
G7 Em6 C
I just want to die
