[Verse 1]
        D
I don't need you, I don't need you
          A
Besides I barely ever see you anymore
    D                                 A
And when I do it feels like you're only halfway there
      D
Young mothers love me even ghosts of
A
Girlfriends call from Cleveland
          F#m                    A
They will meet me anytime and anywhere

[Chorus]
    D
The day I die, the day I die
A
Where will we be?
    Em
The day I die, the day I die
G
Where will we be?

D  A/C#  Bm  A

[Verse 2]
      D
Don't do this, I don't do this to you
      A
Don't expect me to enjoy it
         D                                    A                            D
'Cause I really don't have the courage not to turn the volume up inside my ears
                           A
For years I used to put my head inside the speakers
       F#m                               A
In the hallway when you get too high and talk forever

[Chorus]
    D
The day I die, the day I die
A
Where will we be?
    Em
The day I die, the day I die
G
Where will we be?

    D
The day I die, the day I die
A
Where will we be?
    Em
The day I die, the day I die
G
Where will we be?

Bm  Bm/G  x8

[Bridge]
  Bm                           Bm/G               F#m                   A
I get a little punchy with the vodka just like my great uncle Valentine Jester did
        Bm                     Bm/G                        F#m                   A
 But he had to deal with those people like you who made no goddamn common sense
    Bm                      Bm/G                   F#m                   A
I'd rather walk all the way home right now than to spend one more second in this place
    Bm               Bm/G            F#m              A
I'm exactly like you Valentine, just come outside and leave with me

D  A/C#  Bm  A

[Verse 3]
               D                     A
Let's just get high enough to see our problems
               D                      A
Let's just get high enough to see our fathers' houses

[Chorus]
    D
The day I die, the day I die
A
Where will we be?
    Em
The day I die, the day I die
G
Where will we be?

    D
The day I die, the day I die
A
Where will we be?
    Em
The day I die, the day I die
G
Where will we be?
