[Verse]
Am   F   Am   G   Am   F        C   G
I'm sorry             about the sun,
Am        F   Am   G  Am       F        G
how could I know        that you would burn? And
Am   F   Am   G    Am   F         C   G
I'm sorry             about the moon,
Am        F   Am  G  Am            F     G
How could I know       that you'd disapprove?

[Pre-Chorus]
          F              G
And I'll never make the same mistake,
              C            G/B
the next time I create the universe
          Am             G       F      G
I'll make sure we communicate at length
   C   G   C
Oh yeah

[Chorus]
          Am               F
But until then, better off dead,
               C                      G
a smile on the lips and a hole in the head,
           Am                     F
Better off dead, yeah better than this,
        C                               E
take it away, 'cause there's nothing to miss

[Verse]
Am   F   Am   G   Am   F        C   G
I'm sorry             about the world,
Am        F   Am   G  Am           F   G
how could I know       you'd take it so bad?

[Pre-Chorus]
     F              G
And I'll never make the same mistake
             C             G/B
So if you're looking for a patsy
        Am             G     F     G
Why not try the entire human race
                C    G    C
Just to play it safe

[Chorus]
          Am               F
But until then, better off dead
               C                      G
A smile on the lips and a hole in the head
           Am                     F
Better off dead, yeah better than this
        C                                G           
Take it away, 'cause there's nothing to miss
           Am                    F
Better off dead, yeah better off dead
              C                       G
Why don't you try pushing daisies instead?
           Am                    F
Better off dead, yeah better off dead
               C                       E
A smile on the lips and a hole in the head

[Pre-Chorus]
     F              G
And I'll never make the same mistake,
              C            G/B
