Wye Oak - I Hope You Die
Capo 1
[Verse 1]
F Dm
In the belly of the cloud
Bb
I was released
C F
You were released
F Dm
Was it deafeningly loud?
Bb
Or was it peace?
C F
Sweet peace
[Verse 2]
F
All the streets
Dm
All filled with sound
Bb
Because it's right
C F
It's for the best
F
Still I sense
Dm
Their judgment now
Bb
As we ask for rest
C F
Just rest
[Chorus]
F Dm
I can't sleep until I see you sleeping
F Dm
Curse my mind and its all-seeing eye
F
Watch the rise
Dm
And wonder if you're breathing
Bb
Against your will
C F
You are alive
[Verse 3]
F Dm
I don't recognize the world
Bb
That you have made
C F
That we have made
F Dm
Still you fool yourself to ask
Bb
If you had stayed
C F
If we had stayed
[Verse 4]
F Dm
At the ringing of a bell
Bb C F
Or at the falling of a tree
F Dm
If you think of it at all
Bb
Remember me
C F
Just me
[Chorus]
F Dm
I can't breathe until I see you waking
F Dm
Watching as the scars fall from your eyes
F Dm
Into a world that you may not remember
Bb
I hope you die
C F
I hope you die
Bb
I hope you die
C F
I hope you die
[Outro]
