[Intro]
| G#m E | G#m F# | G#m E | B  - |
| G#m E | G#m F# | G#m E | D# - |
| -   - |

[Verse 1]
G#m    E    G#m F# G#m E        B  F#
   I'm sorry          about the sun
G#m       E     G#m F#
How could I know
G#m     E              F#
   that you would burn?

[Verse 2]
   G#m    E    G#m F# G#m E        B   F#
And   I'm sorry          about the moon
G#m       E     G#m F#
How could I know
G#m           E          F#
   that you'd disapprove?

[Pre-Chorus]
         E              F#
And I'll never make the same mistake,
              B            F#/A#
The next time I create the universe,
          G#m            F#      E
I'll make sure we communicate at length
F#   B5  F#5
  Oh yeah

[Chorus]
B5                G#m                E
  But untill then,   better off dead,
               B                      F#
A smile on the lips and a hole in the head
                G#m
Better off dead,   yeah,
                E
better than this
         B                             D#
Take it away 'cause there's nothing to miss

[Verse 3]
G#m    E    G#m F# G#m E        B    F#
   I'm sorry          about the world
G#m       E     G#m F#
How could I know
G#m           E         F#
   you'd take it so bad?

[Pre-Chorus]
         E              F#
And I'll never make the same mistake,
             B             F#/A#
So if you're looking for a patsy,
        G#m            F#
Why not try the entire human race?
E F#                    B5 F#5
    Just to play it safe

[Chorus]
B5               G#m                E
  But 'till then,   better off dead,
               B                      F#
A smile on the lips and a hole in the head
                G#m
Better off dead,   yeah,
                E
better than this
         B                             F#
Take it away 'cause there's nothing to miss
                G#m                     E
Better off dead,   yeah, better off dead
              B                     F#
Why don't you try pushing daisies instead?
                G#m                     E
Better off dead,   yeah, better off dead
               B                      D#
A smile on the lips and a hole in the head

[Pre-Chorus]
         E              F#
And I'll never make the same mistake,
              B            F#/A#
The next time I create the universe,
          G#m             F#
I'll make sure you participate
E F#   B5  F#5
    Oh yeah
