We Shall Die Alone Someday

Em                      C
Bad things happen everyday.
Am                      D
Cancer and murder and herpes and AIDS.
Em        C    G        D
We'll all die alone someday,
  Em            Am     Em
I hope we don't die alone.

        Em                       C
And our vices make it bearable enough,
   Am                               D
To know our lives are shit, but to not give a fuck.
     Em      C    G     D       Em      Am      Em
They make it bearable enough to help us on our way.
     Em                           C
But still it feels nice to feel alive.
    Am                              D
To try to find a house or home or someplace to thrive.
Em       C        G    D      Em                 Am             Em
It feels great to be alive except for all those times we feel dead.

    Em                           C
And how do we maintain our buoyancy in this
Am                                 D
Salty lake of shit and tears and murder and disease?
    Em     C      G         D       Em       Am   Em
How do we keep ourselves afloat in all this sad stuff?

     Am                          Em
I've gotta know the answers I've gotta know it now.
     Am                          B       C    B C B
And I need to know the answers I have to know how.
Em         C    G       D      Em             Am   Em
We'll all die alone someday, I hope we don't die alone.
