## NOTE: All chord changes are preceded by C/D ##
## C/D = XX0010 ##
CAPO: 1st Fret
INTRO: Am C/D-Am C/D-D7 C/D-Am C/D-Am C/D-Em
Am D7
Today would be a good day to die
Am C/D-Am
Don't get me wrong, I adore this life
Em Am
But as they check the engine on this little tiny plane
D7 Am C/D-Am
I think, my god, I wouldn't change a single thing
Em Am
If today the propeller should just fall into the sea
D7 Am C/D-Am Em
I'd go tumbling down with a certain kind of peace
Am D7
Pretty lady showing us the life vest
Am C/D-Am C/D-C
Doesn't scare me much the thought of using this
CHORUS:
D7 Am
Today would be a good day to die
C/D-Am G Am
Ahh, ah, ah
Em Am D7
I'd like another sixty years, if something wills it so
Am C/D-Am
Make a lot of music and some babies too
Em Am
If I should cross over on this ride
D7 Am C/D-Am C/D-D7
I know they'd greet me there on the other side
Am C/D-Am C/D-C
Grandmother meet me on the other side
CHORUS:
D7 Am
Today would be a good day to die
C/D-Am
Ahh, ah, ah

Am
Spent the night with a new lover in my bed
D7 Am C/D-Am
Good the things we get to keep only for an instant
Em Am D7
I'm not saying this life hasn't also hurt me so
Am C/D-Am C/D-D7
Always this awkwardness, it makes me grow
Am C/D-Am
Always this awkwardness, it makes me grow
CHORUS:
D7 Am
Today would be a good day to die
C/D-Am
Ahh, ah, ah

INSTRUMENTAL: Am C/D-Am C/D-D7 C/D-Am C/D-Am C/D-Em
Em Am
This year my highs have been higher, I've reached the lowest kind of low
D7 Am C/D-Am
Then I fell through the bottom and sorta started to float
Em Am
What's this bird in my chest, what's this weight in my arms?
D7 Am C/D-Am
When I think of your hands, it makes me tremble some
D7 Am C/D-Am
When I think of your hands, it makes me tremble some
CHORUS: (## fade to end ##)
D7 Am
Today would be a good day to die
C/D-Am
Ahh, ah, ah
