[Verse 1]
G             Am           Em
I never thought I'd die alone
                C                    G
I laughed the loudest, who'd have known?
              Am               Em
I traced the cord back to the wall
                  C                   G
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
           Am             Em
I took my time, I hurried up
               C                      G
The choice was mine, I didn't think enough
           Am           Em
I'm too depressed to go on
            C            G
You'll be sorry when I'm gone

[Verse 2]
G             Am           Em
I never thought I'd die alone
              C                  G
Another six months, I'll be unknown
            Am                  Em
Give all my things to all my friends
                   C                 G
You'll never step foot in my room again
                 Am           Em
You'll close it off, board it up
              C                       G
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
           Am          Em
Of apple juice in the hall?
              C                   G
Please, tell mom this is not her fault
 
[Verse 3]
          Cmaj7             Am7
I never conquered, rarely came
                                G
Sixteen just held such better days
          Cmaj7          Am7
Days when I still felt alive
            C     G
We couldn't wait to get outside
               Am               Em
The world was wide, too late to try
             C             G
The tour was over, we survived
            Am             Em
I couldn't wait 'til I got home
             C                G    Am Em
To pass the time in my room alone
          C                G
Pass the time in my room alone
