intro: G D Em7 Cadd9 x2
G D
If you want I'll send you a postcard
Em7
To let you know I'm here
Cadd9
I'll be sure to fill it with imagery
G
And I'll be sure to be sincere
D
Cause I don't want to be your burden
Em7
I don't want you to worry for me
Cadd9
Just know it will better now
G
It will be better we all will agree
D
When I don't have to be so many things
Em7
When I don't have to be a son
Cadd9
You won't have to waste your empathy
G
You can do whatever you want...
G
ooh la la la ooh la la
D
ooh la la la ooh la la
Em7 Cadd9
ooh la la la ooh la la la
G
You can try if you want you can build me a house
D
But don't cry when I go when you knew that I would
Em7 Cadd9
It's out of your hands, I'm trying to leave, let me go...
G D
I'll write you one last letter
Em7
I'll tie it to a string
Cadd9
I'll hang it from a lantern
G
For you to find in New Orleans
D
When you go to meet your Maker
Em7
When you go to cut your ties
Cadd9
When you go to drown in the water
G
That springs eternal life
D
But don't you know that you are living
Em7
You are living inside a lie
Cadd9
When you know it could be better here
G
It could be better if you'd just try
D
So mark my words and syntax
Em7
When you read my final note
Cadd9
I want you to know the consequence
G
When you leave this world alone
G
ooh la la la ooh la la
D
ooh la la la ooh la la
Em7 Cadd9
ooh la la la ooh la la la
G
I won't try anymore; I won't build you a house
D
Won't cry when you leave; I know that you're weak
Em7 Cadd9
I did all that I could, you know I tried to give you a reason...
G
So you can die if you want, you can do what you please
D
But remember the ones that have to bury the seeds
Em7 Cadd9
Just know when you go, you place death upon every life...
