The stuff:
I've Been Delivered tab
E, B, A, E  
A, B, A, E  
I cEould break free from theB  
Wood of a cAoffin
If I nEeed
But nothin's hAard as
Gettin' frBee from places
AI've already bEeen
EI've been waste-deep
In the   Bburnin' mAeadows
Of my mEind
In the Aengine
In cold DecBember
Shootin' fAire from the hEose
ENow turn off your lG#mights
'Cause I'm     C#mnot comin' hEome
'Til I'm delAivered for the fBirst timeA  E  
EI was first-born to a   Bparade
That fAollows in rEows
Down a nAarrow cold black rBiver
Faceless shAadows
Movin' slEow
EI would move swift when
The   Bsounds of a trAumpet would blEow
I've been the pAuppet
I've been the strBings
I know the vAacant face it brEings
ENow the bells of curfG#mew
They may rC#ming before I'm thrEough
EBut soon
AI'll be delivered   Bfor the first tAimeE  
EYou might keep clean
In the   Bback of an Aangel motorcEade
It doesn't mAatter who walks Bin
You know, the jAoke is still the sEame
EYou'll just wake up
Like a   Bdisposable lAover
DecompEosed
I've been gAone
I've been remBembered
I've been alAive
I've been the ghEost
ESo now, if downtown explG#modes
I'll still     C#mbe on this rEoad
'Til I'm delAivered for the fBirst timeA  E  
EI have drawn blood
From the   Bneckline
When vAampires were in fEashion
You know I'd   Aeven learn
To cBut my throat
If I thAought I could fit Ein
E'Cause I, I once heard
That you gBotta learn
How to blAend in to this mEess
Where nothin's hAard
Nothin's prBecious
And nothin's smAooth or flawlEess
ENow, no more amG#mused
Just     C#mscreaming Eto be delAivered
For the fBirst timeA  E  
ENow I'm 10 miles in the   Bdeep
And mAighty blue sEea
Looking bAack, towards a lBong white beach
Burnin' Aup into yellow flEames
EAnd I just wave back
Like a lBittle boy up on a pAony
In a shEow
'Cause I can't fAix
Something thBis complex
Any mAore than I can build a rEose
ESo just keep on letting G#mgo
'Cause I     C#mmust be clEose
To being delAivered for the fBirst timeA  E  
ENow I'd rather bleed out
A lBong stream from being lAonely
And feel blEessed
Well than drAown, laying fBace down
In a pAuddle of respEect
EI was once lost
In the cBorridors of the arAena
In blindfEolds
I've been the bAull
I've been the whBip
I just pAulled down the matadorE  
ESo now, turn on your lG#mights
'Cause I'm     C#mcomin' hEome
I've been delAivered for the fBirst timeA  E  
E, B, A, E  
A, B, A, E

The stuff:

I've Been Delivered tab

E B A E

, , ,

A B A E

, , ,

E B

I could break free from the

Wood of a coffin

If I need

But nothin's hard as

Gettin' free from places

A E

I've already been

I've been waste-deep

B A

In the burnin' meadows

Of my mind

In the engine

In cold December

A E

Shootin' fire from the hose

E G#m

Now turn off your lights

C#m E

'Cause I'm not comin' home

A B A E

'Til I'm delivered for the first time

E B

I was first-born to a parade

A E

That follows in rows

A B

Down a narrow cold black river

Faceless shadows

Movin' slow

I would move swift when

B A E

The sounds of a trumpet would blow

I've been the puppet

I've been the strings

A E

I know the vacant face it brings

E G#m

Now the bells of curfew

C#m E

They may ring before I'm through

But soon

A B A E

I'll be delivered for the first time

You might keep clean

B A E

In the back of an angel motorcade

A B

It doesn't matter who walks in

A E

You know, the joke is still the same

You'll just wake up

B A

Like a disposable lover

Decomposed

I've been gone

I've been remembered

I've been alive

I've been the ghost

E G#m

So now, if downtown explodes

C#m E

I'll still be on this road

A B A E

'Til I'm delivered for the first time

I have drawn blood

From the neckline

A E

When vampires were in fashion

You know I'd even learn

To cut my throat

A E

If I thought I could fit in

'Cause I, I once heard

That you gotta learn

A E

How to blend in to this mess

Where nothin's hard

Nothin's precious

A E

And nothin's smooth or flawless

E G#m

Now, no more amused

C#m E A

Just screaming to be delivered

B A E

For the first time

E B

Now I'm 10 miles in the deep

A E

And mighty blue sea

A B

Looking back, towards a long white beach

A E

Burnin' up into yellow flames

And I just wave back

B A

Like a little boy up on a pony

In a show

'Cause I can't fix

Something this complex

A E

Any more than I can build a rose

E G#m

So just keep on letting go

C#m E

'Cause I must be close

A B A E

To being delivered for the first time

Now I'd rather bleed out

B A

A long stream from being lonely

And feel blessed

A B

Well than drown, laying face down

A E

In a puddle of respect

I was once lost

B A

In the corridors of the arena

In blindfolds

I've been the bull

I've been the whip

A E

I just pulled down the matador

E G#m

So now, turn on your lights

C#m E

'Cause I'm comin' home

A B A E

I've been delivered for the first time

E B A E
