Intro:
F#m
Verse 1:
F#mRichard Divine made up his mind to take the Bmlast few steps to
Ethe bathroom door from his bedroom floor and to F#mlock himself in.
F#mSteady young hands, meticulous plans, disposable Bmrazors and a
Eblisterpack filled with strong sleeping pills, and a bath of F#mhot water.
Chorus 1:
A He said hes not for sale, sC#7aid that he felt houDnded,
crowded and Bsurrounded by this life he didnt choose. F#m F
Verse 2:
F#mHe carefully wrote a funerary note on his best Bmwriting paper
Eto set out the facts, and sealed it with wax, and left it in F#mthe kitchen. F
F#mHe left it out so his parents would know what there was Bmwaiting for them
Epale cold skin and blood seeping in to the landF#ming carpet.
Chorus 2:
A He said hes not for sale, C#7said that he felt hoDunded,
crowded and surroBunded by this life he didnt choose. A
But everybody plC#7ays this game on a daily basiDs.
Theyre not heroes, theyre survivoBrs,
and its not Shakespearian if they lose.
Bridge: F#m E D C# (not sure)
F#mSo do what you want,do what you want, do what the Evoices tell you,
Dbut don’t ever say, dont ever say that we didnt C#warn you
Because we warned you. F#m F F#m F F#m F F#m
Chorus 3:
A He said hes not for sC#7ale, but he bought into his failDure.
Hes telling tales that haBmmer nails right into open palms.
A A martyr in reverC#7se, he’s best at being wDorst,
the rest of us are curBsed but we keep calm and we carry on.
Outro: F# C#7 D E F# C#7 D
E So Richard, here it is:
A None of us are blameleC#mss, huddled here like strangDers,
shameless in our listEs of all the changes we say we need.
A But I think that you kC#7new that,
D D# (?) B
you cant pretend its news that when you cut yourself youll bleed.
