[Fm] [A#] [Fm] [A#]
[F#m] [G#] [C#]
I hope that our [G#] few remaining friends [F#] give [C#] up on trying to save us.
I hope we come [G#] up with a failsafe plot [F#] to piss off [C] the dumb [C#] few that forgave us.
I hope the [G#] fences we mentioned [F#] fall down [G#] beneath their own weight.
[C#] And I hope [A#m] we hang on past the last [F#] exit.
I [G#] hope it's already too late.
[C#] And I hope the junkyard a few blocks from [A#] here someday burns down.
[F#] And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away, and I [G#] never come back to this [F#] town again.
[G#] In my life, [C#] I hope I lie, [F#] and tell everyone you were a good wife.
And [C#] I hope you die, [G#] I hope we both die.
[C#] [Fm] [A#]
[Fm] [A#] [F#m] [G#]
[C#] I hope I cut [G#] myself shaving tomorrow.
[F#] I [C#] hope it bleeds all day long.
Our friends say it's [G#] darkest before the sun [F#] rises.
[G#] We're pretty sure [C#] they're all wrong.
I hope it stays [D#] dark [G#] forever.
[F#] I hope the [G#] worst isn't over.
[C#] And [A#m] I hope you blink before I do.
[F#] I hope I [G#] never get sober.
[C#] And I hope when you think of me years down the [A#] line, you can't find one good thing to say.
[F#] And I'd hope that if I found the strength to walk out, you'd stay the hell [G#] out of my way.
[F#] I am drowning.
There is [G#] no sign of land.
You are [C#] coming down with me, [F#] hand in unlovable [C#] hand.
And I hope you die, I [G#] hope we both die.
