Four years of hard work!

This is kinda based off of the acoustic version so it might not go perfectly well with the electric version
because of the other instruments and whatnot.
The first chorus is palm muted and the 2nd chorus and onwards jeff uses open chord shapes for the most part
and all E major chords are open

Special chords
Adim* Dmaj7/A* Bm7* (if this chord is difficult to transition to you can just mute the D on the A string)
e -x- -2- -x-
B -x- -2- -x-
G -8- -2- -7-
D -7- -0- -7-
A -6- -0- -5-
E -5- -x- -7-



[Verse 1]
A C#m
When you’re a ghost,
A Dmaj7
When you’re a ghost,
F#m Adim* E
they’ll sit around and talk about how they liked you the most.

A C#m
When you’re a dream,
A Dmaj7
When you’re a dream,
F#m Adim* E
I’ll wake up to warm sun-rays that make me want to scream.

[Chorus]
A D F#m
I wanna let you know while you’re alive
Dmaj7 A
because everybody loves you when you die,
D E
but when it matters they’re not there, not there.


[Verse 2]
A C#m
When love is dead,
A Dmaj7
When love is dead,
F#m Adim* E
we’ll remember gentle nudges keeping us in bed,

A C#m
or laughing at funerals,
A Dmaj7
queasy at carnivals,
F#m Adim* E
listening to heartbeats slowing down as we keep growing old, yeah.


[Chorus]
A D F#m
I gotta let you know while you’re alive
Dmaj7/A* A
‘cause everybody loves you when you die
Bm7* E
but when it matters they’re not there, not there.
A D F#m
I gotta let you know while you’re alive
Dmaj7/A* A
‘cause I’ll be a disaster when you die
Bm7* E
chubby body, no hair, don’t care.


[Bridge]
D A C#m
And it’s not like the love that they showed us on TV.
D A C# F#m
It’s a home that can burn. It’s a limb to freeze.
D
It’s worry.
Bm7*
Love is worry.
A
Yeah.
D5 C#5 F#5 A5
