Dead!
My Chemical Romance
The Black Parade
2006
[Verse]
G
And if your heart stops beating
D
I'll be here wondering
         Em              C
Did you get what you deserve?
                    G
The ending of your life and if you get to heaven
D
I'll be here waiting, babe
         Em                   C
Did you get what you deserve?
                    Am
The end, and if your life wont wait
          C           D
Then your heart can't take this
[Chorus]
 G                     D
Have you heard the news that you're dead?
  C
No one ever had much nice to say
       Eb                   D7
I think they never liked you anyway
 G                    D
Oh take me from the hospital bed
     C
Wouldn't it be grand? It ain't exactly what you planned.
      Eb
And wouldn't it be great
   Dsus2      G
If we were dead?
     G
Ohh dead.
[Verse]
G
Tongue-tied and oh so squeamish
D
You never fell in love
     Em                    C
Did you get what you deserve?
                   G
The ending of your life
               G
And if you get to heaven
     D
I'll be here waiting, babe
     Em                 C
Did you get what you deserve?
                         Am
The end, and if your life won't wait
         C            D
Then your heart can't take this
[Chorus]
 G                 D
Have you heard the news that you're dead?
  C
No one ever had much nice to say
       Eb              D7
I think they never liked you anyway
 G                    D
Oh take me from the hospital bed
     C
Wouldn't it be grand to take a pistol by the hand?
          Eb
And wouldn't it be great
   Dsus2
If we were dead?
[Verse]
 Am                    C
And in my honest observation
              Am
During this operation
                 C   G            D
Found a complication in your heart
                 Am          C         G         D
So long, 'cause now you've got (now you've got)
          Em
Maybe just 2 weeks to live
              Em                         D
Is that the most the both of you can give?
[Adlib]
G  D  Em  C
One, two, one two three four!
G
LA LA LA LA LA!
D
LA LA LA LA LA LA!
 C              D
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!
Well come on,
 G
LA LA LA LA LA!
 D
LA LA LA LA LA LA!
   C              D
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!
Oh motherfucker,
[Outro]
     G               D
If life ain't just a joke (LA LA LA LA LA!)
                 C
Then why are we laughing? (LA LA LA LA LA LA!)
                     D
If life ain't just a joke (LA LA LA LA LA!)
                  G
Then why are we laughing?
                     D
If life ain't just a joke (LA LA LA LA LA!)
                 C
Then why are we laughing? (LA LA LA LA LA LA!)
                        D
If life ain't just a joke (LA LA LA LA LA!)
                  G
Then why am I dead?
G
DEAD!
