Text size
 
              Intro (sing the intro melody while playing these chords): D5, C#5, Bb5, A5, E5 2x 
 
Enter Drums: Dm, Fm 2x 
 
Dm                               C#5 
Before the story begins, is it such a sin, 
Fm                 Abm 
For me to take what's mine, until the end of time? 
Dm                       C#5 
We were more than friends, before the story ends, 
Fm                Abm 
And I will take what's mine, create what 
 
God would never design 
 
Dm              A 
Our love had been so strong for far too long, 
Abm 
I was weak with fear that 
Dm followed by A small breakdown of Ab5, G5, F5 
Something would go wrong, 
Dm           A 
Before the possibilities came true, 
Abm        Dm followed by A small breakdown of Ab5, 
F5 
I took all possibility from you 
 
Dm     F           Fm      Abm 
Almost laughed myself to tears, (CRAZY LAUGHTER) 
Dm      F         Fm       Dm 
Conjuring her deepest fears (COME HERE YA? FUCKIN? BITCH!!!) 
 
Dm                C#5           (F5 slide to Ab5   3x) 
Must have stabbed her fifty fucking times, 
 
I can't believe it, 
Dm            C#5            (F5 slide to Ab5   3x) 
Ripped her heart out right before her eyes, 
             (guitar silent for eat it eat it eat it) 
Eyes over easy, eat it, eat it, eat it 
 
Dm 
She was never this good in bed 
 
Even when she was sleepin' 
 
A 
Now she's just so perfect I've 
 
Never been quite so fucking deep in 
 
(here the strings of the orchestra do a walk down of sorts ? I simplified it for 
cuz it's really hard to sing to if you play the real riff) 
 
One Bar of Dm, Bb before singing continues 
 
            Dm            Bb 
It goes on, and on, and on, 
          Dm               Bb 
I can keep you lookin' young and preserved forever, 
    Dm                   Bb 
With a fountain to spray on your youth whenever 
 
(the string walk down section which I simplified is now over) 
 
             Gm                  C 
'Cause I really always knew that my little crime 
         F                       Dm 
Would be cold that's why I got a heater for your thighs 
         Bb       C               F 
And I know, I know it's not your time 
       Dm 
But bye, bye 
    Bb                    C 
And a word to the wise when the fire dies 
        A                          Dm, C, Bb 
You think it's over but it's just begun 
          C 
But baby don't cry 
 
             Bb            C 
You had my heart, at least for the most part 
      F        C            Dm             C    Bb 
'Cause everybody's gotta die sometime, we fell apart 
        C 
Let's make a new start 
      F        C       Dm                  C      Bb 
'Cause everybody's gotta die sometime yea-yeah 
          C 
But baby don't cry-ay-ay-ay-ay 
 
 
(Repeat all relevant parts until the end of the second Chorus) 
 
Interlude: 
 
Dm, A, Fm, Fm 2x 
NOW BE CAREFUL HERE ? sometimes the chord changes on the male voice, and sometimes on 
female voice ? pay close attention 
 
Dm     Bb      Gm         F 
     I    will suffer for so long 
 
(What will you do, not long enough) 
           Gm 
To make it up to you 
          F 
(I pray to God that you do) 
          Gm 
I'll do whatever you want me to do 
  A                      Dm 
(Well then I'll grant you one chance) 
       Bb   Gm 
And if it's not enough 
                            F 
(If it's not enough, If it's not enough) 
         Gm 
If it's not enough 
 
(Not enough) 
F 
Try again 
 
(Try again) 
Gm 
And again 
 
(And again) 
A 
Over and over again 
 
Dm 
We're coming back, coming back 
 
We'll live forever, live forever 
Fm 
Let's have wedding, have a wedding 
 
Let's start the killing, start the killing 
 
 
Dm, Fm 2x  and then A 
 
And afterward (during the oooooohh-ing): 
 
D5, C#5, Bb5, A5, E5 2x 
 
 
In this part the strings of the orchestra do that same walk down ? substitute it with 
I said to use previously for ?it goes on and on and on? 
 
Do you take this man in death for the rest of your unnatural life? 
 
(Yes, I do.) 
 
Do you take this woman in death for the rest of your unnatural life? 
 
(I do) 
 
I now pronounce you... 
 
End with Pre-Chorus and Chorus
