Live Young Die Fast (Acoustic) - Alkaline Trio - Agony and Irony Deluxe CD
Standard Tuning (EADGBe)
Tabbed by Jack Cookson (Torn Asunder)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is about 99% correct I'd say, I worked it out by ear from this 
recording: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IwQ035CtHw. It would be handy to listen
to this to get the rhythm and the chord changes right, it's really easy. If
you have any corrections just leave them in a comment and I'll update it.
Have fun playing this amazing song :).

Verse 1:
          C#m
No big surprise
                    A
We turned out this way
            C#m
It's in our eyes
              A      F#m
Like shallow graves
            E            A        C#m
But we are one with the larva and dirt
             B                             A       B
We don't discriminate it all for what it's worth

Verse 2:
           C#m
Young easy life
             A
An untimely death
             C#m                              A       F#m
This doesn't work at all for me so save your breath
              E      A
You took your time
               C#m
And stashed it away
           B                                     A      B
Deep down inside of a cardboard box marked rainy day

Chorus:
        E      A
So live young
    C#m
Die fast
B  E     A
No-one
     C#m
Will last 
B           E                A
No, so sit back and relax, enjoy the crash
       C#m                        B
You're fading to black and you're gone
     E      A
Live young
    C#m   B
Die fast
    A
Die fast

Verse 3:
         C#m
Tomorrow night
          A
This tragedy
        C#m                   A     F#m
Will be filed under distant memory
          E      A
I bit my tongue 
              C#m
And I let it bleed
           B                   A     B
I've never been big on originality

Chorus:
         E      A
No, live young
    C#m
Die fast
B  E     A
No-one
     C#m
Will last 
B           E                A
No, so sit back and relax, enjoy the crash
       C#m                       B
You're fading to black and it's gone
     E      A
Live young
    C#m   B
Die fast

Bridge:
F#m               A         
   And I feel a miracle
E                       D
 in every breath that I breathe
F#m                D
   Won't let this miracle
A         Bm
End in tragedy
F#m            A
   I sense a miracle
E             D
 In all that I see
F#m                D
   Won't let this miracle
A              B
Slip away from me

Chorus:
        E      A
So live young
    C#m
Die fast
B  E     A
No-one
     C#m
Will last 
B           E                A
No, so sit back and relax, enjoy the crash
       C#m                        B
You're fading to black and you're gone
     E      A
Live young
    C#m   B
Die fast
    A   
Die fast


End on a final E chord.
