Adams Song

V1:    C        Am              Em
i never thought i’d die alone
F                C
i laughed the loudest who’d have known
Am               Em
i traced the chord back to the wall
F                  C
no wonder it was never plugged in at all
Am             Em
i took my time i hurried up
F                  C
i choice was mine i didnt think enough
Am           Em             F             C
im to depressed to go on, you’ll be sorry when im gone

chorus:  C           Am             Em
i never conquered rarely came
F               C
16 just held such better days
Am             Em
days when i’d still feel alive
F              C
and couldnt wait to get outside
Am             Em
the world was wide too late to try
F           C
the tour was over we’d survived
Am             Em
i couldnt wait til i got home
F               C
to pass the time in my room alone

v2:     C           Am              Em
i never thought i’d die alone
F              C
another 6 months, ill be unknown
Am               Em
give all my things to all my friends,
F               C
you’ll never set foot in my room again
Am         Em
you’ll close it off, you’ll board it up,
F                       C
remember the time that i spilled the cup
Am           Em
of apple juice in the hall,
F                   C
please tell mom this is not her fault

chorus2:     C          Am           Em
i never conquered, rarely came
F                C
tomorrow holds such better days
Am            Em
days when i still feel alive
F            C
when i cant wait to get outside
Am                Em
the world is wide as time goes by
F           C
the tour is over i’ve survived
Am              Em
i cant wait til i get home
F               C
to pass the time in my room alone
