[Verse]
FDare me to jump off this Jersey bridge
CI bet you never had a Friday night like tGhis
Keep it up keep it up I take a Dlook up to the sky
I see Fred for the cancer, red for the wealthy,
CRed for the drink that's mixed with suiGcide.
Everything Dred.
[Chorus]
FPlease, won't you Ampush me for the Flast time,
Lets scream until there's Cnothing left
So sick of Gplaying, I don't want this anymAmore.
The thought of you is no fucking Ffun.
                           C            G (One strum)
You want a martyr, I'll be one because enough's enough,
And now we're Amdone.
AmYou told me, "think about it"
Well I Fdid, now I don't wanna feel a thing Canymore
I'm tired of begging for the things that I Gwant,
I'm over sleeping like a dog on the Amfloor.
[Verse]
FThe thing I think I loveC  
Will surely bring me pGain
Intoxication, paranoiaD, and a lot of fame

Pubescent drama queeGn

And now we're Amdone.
AmYou told me, "think about it", well I Fdid
Now I don't wanna feel a thing anyCmore
I'm tired of begging for the things that I Gwant
I'm over sleeping like a dog on the Amfloor.
Imagine living like a king someFday.
A single night without a ghost in the Cwalls.
And if the bass shakes the earth undergGround.
We'll start a new revolution Amnow
[Bridge]
AmHail Mary, Fforgive me
CBlood for blood, Ghearts beating
AmCome at me, Cnow this is Gwar!
[Chorus]
AmYou told me, "think about it", well I Fdid

Imagine living like a king someFday.
A single night without a ghost in the Cwalls.
We are the shadows screaming take us Gnow
We'd rather die than live to rust on the Amground.

[Verse]

Dare me to jump off this Jersey bridge

C G

I bet you never had a Friday night like this

Keep it up keep it up I take a look up to the sky

I see red for the cancer, red for the wealthy,

C G

Red for the drink that's mixed with suicide.

Everything red.

[Chorus]

F Am F

Please, won't you push me for the last time,

Lets scream until there's nothing left

G Am

So sick of playing, I don't want this anymore.

The thought of you is no fucking fun.

C G (One strum)

You want a martyr, I'll be one because enough's enough,

And now we're done.

You told me, "think about it"

F C

Well I did, now I don't wanna feel a thing anymore

I'm tired of begging for the things that I want,

I'm over sleeping like a dog on the floor.

[Verse]

F C

The thing I think I love

Will surely bring me pain

Intoxication, paranoia, and a lot of fame

F C

Three cheers for throwing up

Pubescent drama queen

D Am F C G

You make me sick I make it worse by drinking late.

[Chorus]

Am F

Please, won't you push me for the last time,

Lets scream until there's nothing left

So sick of playing, I don't want this anymore.

The thought of you is no fucking fun.

C G

You want a martyr, I'll be one because enough's enough,

And now we're done.

Am F

You told me, "think about it", well I did

Now I don't wanna feel a thing anymore

I'm tired of begging for the things that I want

I'm over sleeping like a dog on the floor.

Imagine living like a king someday.

A single night without a ghost in the walls.

And if the bass shakes the earth underground.

We'll start a new revolution now

[Bridge]

Am F

Hail Mary, forgive me

C G

Blood for blood, hearts beating

Am C G

Come at me, now this is war!

[Chorus]

Am F

You told me, "think about it", well I did

Now I don't wanna feel a thing anymore

I'm tired of begging for the things that I want

I'm over sleeping like a dog on the floor.

[Outro]

Imagine living like a king someday.

A single night without a ghost in the walls.

We are the shadows screaming take us now

We'd rather die than live to rust on the ground.
