G
Don't nobody tell me
G7/F                    C/G        Am
That God don't have a sense of humor
G
'Cause now that I want to live
G7/F            C/G            Am
Well, everybody around me is dyin'
Dm                       C
Now that I finally wanna live
                       G  Gsus4  G
The ones I love are dyin'


G                        G7/F
Becoming friends with a noose that I made
C/G                  Am
And I keep trying to untie it
G                      G7/F
Make it into something useful
         C/G                         Am
Or maybe hang it through a window pane
Dm             C    G     Gsus4  G
Turn it into a fire escape


[Chorus]
             Gm Dm  C      Gm     Dm   C
It tastes so bitter on my tongue
              Gm  Dm
The truth's a killer
C                    Gm      F
But I can't leave it alone
C                    Gm      F
But I can't leave it alone
                     Cm      Gm  D
But I can't leave it alone

Cm Eb  Gm G

[Verse 2]
G
You don't remember
G7/F
My name somedays or
C/G              Am
That we're related
G
It triggers my worry
G7/F                C/G
Who else am I gonna lose before
     Am
I am ready
Dm         C         G   Gsus4  G
And who's gonna lose me


[Chorus]
                Dm     C  Gm      Dm  C
It tastes so bitter on my tongue
              Gm     Dm
The truth's a killer
  C                      Gm   F
But I can't leave it alone
                      Gm      F
But I can't leave it alone
                      Cm    Eb  Gm
But I can't leave it alone
D                       Eb     Gm
But I can't leave it a-


[Verse 3]
Ab           Gm
If you know love
      Cm             Gm
You best prepare to grieve
 Cm             Gm
Let it enter your open heart and
   Ab                  Gm     Eb Gm
Then prepare to let it leave


[Chorus]
Gm             Dm     C  Gm  Dm
It tastes so bitter
    C           Gm Dm
The truth's a killer
    C                 Gm    F
But I can't leave it alone
                     Gm     F
But I can't leave it alone
                     Gm     F
But I can't leave it alone
                     Gm     F
But I can't leave it alone

But I can't leave it a-
