verse 1 Am I had a brother once G He drowned in a bathtub F E Am before he'd ever learned, howwwww to talk G And I don't know what his name was F but my mother does E I heard her say it once Am Padraic my prince I've all but died G From the sheer weight of my shame F You cried but no one came E As the water filled your tiny lungs Am Appear my dear and cry for me G It was six years ago today F That I laid you in your grave E Your sweet young skin was shining then tooverse 2 Am I saw the future once G I was drunk in a phone booth F My eyes were wet and red E Am But I could not tell what was said G And through the screams of the traffic F Voices carried E Saying "I'm sorry" Am On a day so gray it's black inside G Watching churches on TV F In a coma you don't dream E You just hope that someone sits with you Am Babies turn blue when they're ignored G Like the sky on summer days F Before you turn and walk away E It has changed youAm F So tonight to celebrate, i will... G I will poison myself Am F Another coughing, shaking fit in a bathroom G That is spinning C G And I close the door Am F And I rest my head on the tile floor C G Am Sickness and sleep turning me cooooold C G And I'm stilllll nottt sure Am F Is there some better place I could be heading towards? C G Am E ...Where the selfishly sick and self-absorbeddddddddddddddddd Am* Are welcomeAm F So tonight to compensate, I will... G I will poison myself Am F Another coughing shaking fit in a bathroom G That is spinningggg
