                          WHEN YOU DIED - The Menzingers
E|E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------||

Tuning: Half-step down (I think it's actually played on a baritone guitar, 
but this is the tuning of the rest of the album)

For the G/F# chord I put there, just make sure that you go from the root on the 
top strinG (3) down A half step (to 2); I play it like: 2-x-0-0-3-x

G

G                  C               Em
I was on my way to heaven when you died
      C             D                  G          Em
I was racing up the express lane I was cheating HOV lanes
G              C              Em
Made it to the gate in record timing
  C                D                 G              Em
I quickly threw my hazards on, don't bother finding parking
      Am                       G
I was on my to heaven when you died


G                    C              Em
And I was dressed in all black in a hoax
     C            D                  G                  Em
That nobody would notice me, and the bolt cutters I was hiding
G             C          Em
Underneath my over sized jacket
  C                D                  G                           Em
I snuck around the back and broke you out when the guards weren't looking
      Am                       G        G/F#
I was on my to heaven when you died


Em                   C                   D
But then it was all over, they got us surrounded
                          G             G/F#
They beat us with batons, cuffed us and threw us in the car
Em          C                    D
When I wake up I wanna talk to a lawyer
           G     G/F#      C
I demand a fair speedy trial


Em              D
Where do people go when they die?
G                     C
How do you keep them alive?
Em                        D                        G            C
How do you make sure that something like this wont ever happen again?

G

    Bm           Em            D          G
But oh how can a perfect human run out of luck
                     C                               Em
When there's just so many horrible people screaming jackpot
    Bm           Em                D                      G
And oh I can not help but fear the things that I can't control
                C                      Em
The things I'll never ever know
