God Only Knows

[Intro]
 
B A E/G# G A
 
 
[Verse]
 
B                               A
Facedown on the pavement like a wounded animal
E/G#
Don't know if I'll make it
        G             A
But I'm giving up control
    B
The sky is laughing at me
A
Shivers through my bones
        E/G#
Does it have to end so badly?
     G              A
Am I out here on my own?
 
 
[Chorus]
 
D        A                  F
God only knows what's going on
              C        G       D
My life has become the saddest song
          A                 F
Better to burn in hell than fade away
C     G
Fade away
D             A               F
God's looking down on what we have done
             C        G         D
Watching the children play with guns
          A                 F
Better to burn in hell than fade away
C     G   D
Fade away
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
B
Someone show me mercy
         A
'Cause I got nowhere to go
    E/G#
The good times always hurt me
      G            A
Is it safer down below?
B
Wonder what comes after
        A
Will we do it all again?
E/G#
Things that used to matter
           G             A
They don't matter in the end
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
D        A                  F
God only knows what's going on
              C        G       D
My life has become the saddest song
          A                 F
Better to burn in hell than fade away
C     G
Fade away
D             A               F
God's looking down on what we have done
             C        G         D
Watching the children play with guns
          A                 F
Better to burn in hell than fade away
C     G    D
Fade away

My life has become the saddest song

Better to burn in hell than fade away

God only knows what's going on
      Am        F
Fade away fade away
         C            G     D
God only knows what's going on
      Am        F
Fade away fade away
         C            G     D
God only knows what's going on
