Capo 4



E5                           C5            A5
A parent walks in on a child cutting them self

           E5                             C5      A5
Laughs and says  ?silly dear, you're only hurting yourself.?

E5                                C5            A5
      So cut deep or don't cut at all. Are you listening?
                                               
**
I don't care what your parents tell you don't cut at all

             A5
Oh please be listening..
**          
I don't care what those bastards tell you don't cut at all.


E5 G5 A5 C5
 
E5                        G5            A5                   C5
You're staggering in you find a finger gagging yourself you heave and say 
E5            G5
I'm not like those pigs. 
 A5                            C5
i don't care whats good for my health.

E5                         G5
Controlling the room with tilted thighs

    A5            C5
It comes to me as no surprise that 

E5      G5      A5       
i even flicker on my own


F#5                    G5
Feed the one thats closer (As you're flickering on)

D5                      G5
Feed the one thats closed (As you flicker)




E5         G5            
Starving artist you will

A5    C5
    I said it before

E5            G5             A5      
Shed your burdens and build on


C5                        D5
You shed your clothes in spite and whisper 

C5                        D5
You shed your clothes in spite and whisper 

E5             C5        A5
i make the demands.

E5 C5 A5

E5                  C5           A5
Well im doubting my portrait of skin
 
     E5                      C5             A5
But i sure as hell wont find limbs down my throat

E5                                  C5               A5                 E5
The substance of weight defines the beauty laced behind the pride of my even 
            C5        A5
scales they stand alone


E5      E5
So cut

          A5
(Its not) living deeply

E5    E5
Cut   (cut)

     A5
(No) not at all


       C5                 D5                 
You shed your clothes in spite and whisper 

       C5                 D5                 
You shed your clothes in spite and whisper

       C5                D5
You bear these lines to cleanse your system

       C5               D5
You bear these lines despite the symptoms

E5  G5           A5         C5
         i make the demands.
E5  G5            A5         C5
         i make the demands.
E5       G5            
Starving artist you will

A5    C5
    I said it before

E5         G5         A5      
Shed your burdens and build on

C5  D5
(oooh oooh oooh)

C5  D5                                    C5                        
    We won't give up, we won't give up now.
    D5                                    C5              
    We won't give up, we won't give up now.

repeat repeat repeat, etc.

Alternately, if you want to play the ending a bit differently play the above twice then...

When it reaches the climax:
D5                                 E5      G5
We won't give up, we won't give up now.

Then for all times after:
A5                                E5      G5
We won't give up, we won't give up now.
(La da da)

And repeat until the end.

That's just about it.
