Death Thing

Am                    C             F   C
Let's try to end on a pleasant note
Am                          C              F    C
You've ended endless things and you how it goes
Am                         C                            F
You'd lick your wounds but they're in a jar on the shelf
Am                    G              F        C
You lick a stamp on a letter to your old self
                                                  F
You always liked being good at things, didn't you
Am                    C                     F  C
Isn't it funny what a person can get used to
       Dm                          F
And now, just look what you've done
  Dm               C                      F
I hope you're happy, 'cause you've beaten everyone
  Dm                              C                F
I think it's fair to say that the word is all over town

[Chorus]
       Am
Did he answer? (No)
C
Did he answer? (No)
          F
Did he answer? (No)
           Am
Not even a whisper? (No)
            C
So it's over? (Yes)
             F
Now you know the drill
           Am
You're the expert
           C
You're the expert
           F
You're the expert
Dm              F                                   C     Dm  F

Am  C  F    x2

[Verse 2]
Am                    C                         F
You're really good at making introverted people come
Am                  C                    F
First grade, fourth place, standing broad jump
Am                     C
Violent and velvet painting
F
Slaughtering and ego-taming
    Dm
You clocked one thousand hours, baby
C                          F     Am
You could master all of them
C                 F                                     Am
You can take your everlasting love and you can have it
C                F
Though you don't always get to pick what you get good at
C  Dm             F
Now, look how far you've come
Dm                   C
You used to need them
                  F    C        F
And now you could lose every one
Dm                          C
Without even blinking an eye
         F                 C
So go on, put on your crown

[Chorus]
Am
Did she answer? (No)
        C
Did she answer? (No)
        F
Did she answer? (No)
            Am
Not a single heartbeat? (No)
        C
So it's over? (Yes)
       F              Dm  C
So you know the drill
G
You're the expert
Dm             F                              C         Dm  F
