[C]
[G] [A]
[D] I'd like it better, [B] the poetry you sent me
[C] Post-Marx and dissent were a [G] blast
I
[D] really hope you'll do it better
[B] All your friends close by your [C] side
One step closer to [G] recovery
[A]
[D] I wish there was something I [A] could say
To [A] erase each and [G] every page you've [D] been through
Even [A] though it's not my place to say
[G] You're a bitch the [D] effort can't accept
[A] You stink, you knock [B] that seal [A] with your [G] last breath
And I [D] won't stand aside [A] and listen to you give up
[D] If you'll just hold on for one more [B] second
Just hold on to what you have
[C] Just hold on, just hold [G] on
[A] If you'll just hold on for one more [B] second
Just hold on to what you [C] have
Just hold on, just hold [G] [A] on
[D]
These arms remain stretched out [B] to you
Maybe someday you'll lift them up
[C] Maybe it's too late to say
[G] A young girl's heart that's long stopped beating
[A] Wake up, wake up, you've got to [B] believe
Wake up, wake up, you [C] can't give up
Time keeps going on without us
[G] Long after [A] we're dead and gone
[G] I [D] wish there was something I could [A] say
[B] To [E] erase each and every [G] page you've [D] been through
Even [A] though it's not my place to say
[G] You're a bitch the [A] effort can't accept
You stink, you knock [B] that seal [A] with your [G] last breath
And I [A] won't stand aside and listen to you give up
[D] If you'll just hold on for one more second
[B] Just hold on to what you have
[C] Just hold on, just hold
[G] on
[D] If you'll just hold on for one more second
[B] Just hold on to what you have
[C] Just hold on, just hold
