Four years of hard work!

This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

Em C
let me guide you through the story of a boy and his curse
Em C G
tiny diamond in his stroller with his first step chasing the hearse
Em C
sipping at a cup that's half way filled
Em C G
But looking forward to the day he pays that drinking bill
Em C
there's no peace there's no quiet on this earth
Em C G
he confided nestled tightly in that womb beneath the dirt
Em C
hurt no more and when he turned twenty-four
Em C G
he wrote a note to nail to God's front door that said

Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Em
i want death
Am
death in the worst way
Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Am G
don't get me wrong cause

Em
i love life
C
but life has a boyfriend
Em
bless my soul
Am
i'm out to destroy them
Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Am G
for my birthday

Em C
from the high paying job and the love of his life
Em C G
he rode a roller coaster ride of lust on their wedding night
Em C
they made a baby in unmentionable ways
Em C G
he was ungrateful as a man could be on that blessed day
Em C
and underneath he thought this is all a phase
Em C G
just a blip in the existence of a structure vast and great
Em C
pray each night to his cross of a charm
Em C G
for the one thing he couldn't afford just to buy the farm

Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Em
i want death
Am
death in the worst way
Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Am G
don't get me wrong cause

Em
i love life
C
but life has a boyfriend
Em
bless my soul
Am
i'm out to destroy them
Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Am G
for my birthday

Am C Em
i'll never lose another friend again
Am C
or watch them start a war that's fought for ideals that are dead
Am C
i'll never have an argument again
Am Em
because my dust
Am Em
will be your salt
Am F G
my blood will hydrate you off
C Am
my heart will be your meal
F G
and I won't ride the cycle of the way it kills to think and feel

Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Em
i want death
Am
death in the worst way
Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Am G
don't get me wrong cause

Em
i love life
C
but life has a boyfriend
Em
bless my soul
Am
i'm out to destroy them
Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Am G
for my birthday

play with palm-muting or softer

Em C
one sweet day his heart ceased to beat
Em Am
he fell so fast beneath all our feet
F G
through bugs and snakes
Am C
last words he had to say
Em C
were help me claw my way to the surface
Em Am
oh sweet lord you know i deserve this
F G
just one more just one more birthday
