Tuning: Standard EADGBe



Verse 1:
E          Abm              A                   B
  Sleep on now I heard that a knee makes a good pillow
          E               Abm
When your down And do you like it
             A
When someone tickles your arm?
          B
Curl your locks of hair round and round 
E           Abm            A
  You're so tired Let me straighten out your shirt
        B
As your chest rises up and down 
E         Abm               A
  I don't get it either But somehow we'll learn
        B
How the earth spins round and round 


Refrain:
A             B               Abm           A
  You need to fall Thats what people always say 
                  B                Abm              A
You don't know anything at all you haven't felt the pain 


Chorus:
              E                   B/D#     B     Abm
When should I crawl When should I take the final blow
           A              B
When is it bad enough. To earn the right to show 
                  E                B/D#    B     Abm      
How hard should I fall Before it's my turn to be hear
         A                                        B
How much pain should I show on my face Before you listen to a word


Post Chorus:
                 A                  B                       E
How bad should I hurt? How much is enough? how bad should I hurt?


Verse 2:
E          Abm                  A
  You just jerked I hope you're dreaming
          B
But isn't drowning all we've earned?
E         Abm                    A                B
  I won't close my eyes till you lay still, and I won't cry
E                   Abm     A                     B 
  I've been through nothing I haven't witnessed a full stab
E             Abm                  A          B
  I need to experience something before I get laughed at


(Repeat Refrain and Chorus twice and Post Chorus)
