such a great song for the acoustic guitar? not me, that's for sure.

Wish I was too dead to cry A self affliction face

Bb
My thoughts are open season
B5
For this I gave up trying

But once I hold on I won't let go 'till it bleeds
interlude with solo (around D#m and C# chords)
intro again
(same chords as before)
Wish I'd died instead of lived A zombie hides my face
Shelf forgotten with it's memories Diaries left with cryptic entries
(same chords as before)
And you don't need to bother I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on I won't let go 'till it bleeds
You don't need to bother I don't need to be
yeah I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on, once I hold on I'll never live down my disease
outro (same as intro)
