[Intro]
F
I, your name,
A Dm
do solemnly swear not to off myself,
think about offing myself,
Bb F
or continue thinking about offing myself
without reaching out for help
A
after listening to this song
Dm C7 F
Sometimes I see her on the sidewalk,
biking on the wet chalk
[Verse 1]
Dm
Spelling out their names,
and I feel insane
Gm
'Cause I know it's just a game that I'm playing with my
brain
Bb
I don't see her, but I see her,
C7
and I know it isn't real
Fmaj7
But I fake it anyway, pull a smile and wave
Dm
Nod and look away, wait for it to fade
Gm7
But it happens all the time,
people say it's fine
Bb
My roommate says they're killing us,
C7
but we're killing ourselves
And I'm surrounded by
[Chorus]
F
Dead girls on the road
Dm
Dead girls on my phone
Gm7 C7
Dead girls, where do they go?
F
All of the fuckin' dead girls all around
Dm
Dead girls in my town
Gm7 C7
Dead girls, I don't know
Gm Bb C7
Dead girls, where do they go?
[Verse 2]
F
And it'd be wrong to say I miss them,
Dm
I didn't really know him
Gm7 C7
I just have a couple friends that say they knew him well
F
They seem like something special,
Dm
really don't they all?
Gm7
I guess before you're gone,
C7
it can be kinda hard to tell
Gm
I broke the fucking news,
F
it wasn't mine to break
C7
She cried, but I was empty,
A7/Db
it wasn't mine to say
[Chorus]
F
There's dead kids on the road
Dm
Dead kids in my phone
Gm7 C7
Dead kids, where do they go?
F
I wanna be a dead kid, with my friends
Dm
Dead kids, home again
Gm7 C7
Dead kids, I don't know
F Dm
You like them better dead, better dead?
[Post-Chorus]
Gm7 C7
Just say you want it like that
F Dm
You like me better dead, better dead?
Gm7 C7
Gun against your head,
Bb
you like them dead
[Break]
C7 A7/Db Dm
And if all you ever see are dead girls
Bb C7 F Dm
If all you hear is terrible news
Bb C7 A7/Db Dm
Maybe it's not all about the dead girls
Bb C7 F
Maybe it's more about you
Dm Bb C7 F
The living need attention too
[Chorus]
F
Dead kids all the time
Dm
Dead kids in our primes
Gm7 C7
Dead kids, where do they go?
F
I wanna be a dead girl, like the rest
Dm
Dead girls are the best
Gm7 C7
That's why we're on every show
F Dm
You like them better dead, better dead?
[Post-Chorus]
Gm7 C7
Just say you want it like that
F Dm
You like me better dead, better dead?
Gm7 C7
Gun against your head,
F
you like them dead
