//Intro//
C C C C
(Sick and Sad)
//Chorus//
C F
Sick and sad again,
C G
sometimes I'd like the rain to end.
C F
Sick and sad again,
C G F C
sometimes I like to stand on my own two feet.
//Verse//
C Em
Went to the corner of second and main
Am
but there was someone there who mentioned
F C G
that they hoped it would rain forever, forever,
F C
so they could drown in peace.
C Em
Went down to the Hodskin P.L.
Am
But there was nobody to answer
F C G
when I rang the doorbell forever, forever.
F C
So now I'm sad all the time.
//Chorus//
C F
Sick and sad again,
C G
sometimes I'd like the rain to end.
C F
Sick and sad again,
C G F C
sometimes I like to stand on my own two feet.
//Interlude//
C C C C
(The Big Sleep)
//Verse//
C G Am
Why do you cry when you know how the story ends?
F C G
How can you laugh when you know that it hurts your friends?
C G Am
We've all been there once but you never left
F C
This is me coming back to get you
F G C
I have to say goodbye to make amends
C G Am
I'm not leaving this place
F C G
Unless i'm leaving with you
C G Am
You're the only person with a half decent heart
F G
And i know you will put it to use
C G Am
Until it's gone, gone, gone
F C G
gone, gone, gone
C G Am G F G
gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, yeah
(no Interlude here)
(Somewhere in the Between)
//Verse(starts on the G from the YEAH!)//
C Em Am
You were gone when we found you
F C G
You were practically surrounded, you were trapped
C Em Am F
But the opposition stalled, their blood ran cold
C G C (STOP)
When they saw the look of love in your eyes
C Em
Maybe the times we had, they weren't that bad
Am
And everything else was part of the plan
F C G C
We sang: "I don't know where we go (from here")
C Em Am F
This is the alpha, omega, beginning and the end
C G C (STOP)
And we all just idolize the dead
//Chorus//
C Em Am
So you were born (So you were born), and that was a good day
F C G
Someday you'll die (Someday you'll die), and that is a shame
C Em Am F
But somewhere in the between was a life of which we all dream
C G C
And nothing and no one will ever take that away
