Lyrics

[Intro]
| Am - | C/G - | C/F - | C/D C/F |
| Am - | C/G - | C/F - | C/D C/F |

[Verse 1]
C           F               Am
 I never thought I'd die alone
               F                    C
I laughed the loudest who'd have known?
               F                Am
I traced the cord back to the wall
                 F                    C
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
            F              Am
I took my time, I hurried up 
                 F                     C
The choice was mine I did not think enough
             F          Am
I'm too depressed to go on
          F              Cadd11
You'll be sorry when I'm gone  

[Interlude]
         | Dm | Am | C/F |
| Cadd11 | Dm | Am | C/F |

[Pre-Chorus]
C          Dm                Am
 I never conquered, rarely came
             F                  C
sixteen just held such better days
          Dm              Am
Days when I still felt alive
             F              C
We could not wait to get outside

[Chorus]
                Dm                Am
The world was wide, too late to try 
              F             C
The tour was over we'd survived
              Dm            Am
I could not wait till I got home
              F                Am
To pass the time in my room alone

[Verse 2]
C           F               Am
 I never thought I'd die alone
            F                   C
Another six months I'll be unknown
               F                 Am
Give all my things to all my friends
                  F                  C
You'll never step foot in my room again
                 F             Am
You'll close it off, board it up 
               F                       C
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
           F          Am
Of apple juice in the hall
            F                     Cadd11
Please tell mom this is not her fault

Sixteen just held such better days
          Dm              Am
Days when I still felt alive
               F            C

To pass the time in my room alone    
C          Dm                Am
 I never conquered, rarely came
         F                   C
Tomorrow holds such better days
                 Dm              Am
Days when I could  still felt alive
             F              C
When i can't wait to get outside
               Dm                 Am
The world is wide, the time goes by 
             F              C
The tour is over, i've survived
          Dm                Am
I can't wait till I get home
              F                C
To pass the time in my room alone
