• Song:

    Want You Gone

  • Artist:

    Jonathan Coulton

Here is another version of Want You Gone. I had the previous song, "Still 
alive", in mind when writing this and did not listen to the original while 
guessing the chords. The idea is to have a version better suited for when 
you don't have other instruments accompanying the guitar.

(I used JamieMin0r's version from ultimate-guitar.com as a template.)


A            F#m
Well here we are again
D           E
It's always such a pleasure
A        F#m
Remember when you tried
D          E
to kill me twice?
A         F#m
Oh how we laughed and laughed
D        E
Except I wasn't laughing
A         F#m
Under the circumstances
D         C#         F#
I've been shockingly nice


F#    Abm           Bbm      B
      You want your freedom? Take it
F#    Abm           B        C#
      That's what I'm counting on
F#    Abm       Bbm      B
      I used to want you dead but
Bm         E        A
Now I only want you gone

A         F#m
She was a lot like you
D          E
(Maybe not quite as heavy)
A          F#m         D       E
Now little Caroline is in here too
A            F#m
One day they woke me up
D          E
So I could live forever
A           F#m
It's such a shame the same
D          C#        F#
will never happen to you

F#    Abm           Bbm      B
      You've got your short sad life left
F#    Abm           B        C#
      That's what I'm counting on
F#    Abm       Bbm      B
      I'll let you get right to it
Bm         E        A   
Now I only want you gone

A          F#m
Goodbye my only friend
D           E
Oh, did you think I meant you?
A             F#m
That would be funny
      D          E
if it weren't so sad
A             F#m
Well you have been replaced
D            E
I don't need anyone now
A        F#m
When I delete you maybe
D         C#         F#
I'll stop feeling so bad

F#   Abm          Bbm    B
     Go make some new disaster
F#   Abm           B        C#
     That's what I'm counting on
F#   Abm       Bbm      B
     You're someone else's problem
Bm         E        A   
Now I only want you gone
Bm         E        A
Now I only want you gone
D          E        
Now I only want you
A
gone
