[Verse] Am R I P to my youth C And you could call this the funeral Em I'm just telling the truth G And you can play this at my funeral Am Wrap me up in Chanel inside my coffin C Might go to Hell and there ain't no stopping Em Might be a sinner and I might be a saint G I'd like to be proud but somehow I'm ashamed Am Sweet little baby in a world full of pain C I gotta be honest I don't know if I could take it Em Everybody's talking but what's anybody saying G Mama said if I really want to then I can change yeah yeah Am R I P to my youth C If you really listen then this is to you Em Mama there is only so much I can do G Except for you to witness for to worship me too
[Chorus]
CAmEm I'm using white lighters to see what's in front of me Am R I P to my youth
[Verse]
C And you could call this the funeral Em I'm just telling the truth yeah G You can play this at my funeral Am Tell my sister don't cry and don't be sad C I'm in Paradise with Dad Em Close my eyes and then cross my arms G Put me in the dirt let me dream with the stars Am Throw me in a box with the oxygen off C You gave me the key and you locked every lock Em When I can't breathe I won't ask you to stop G When I can't breathe don't call for a cop Am I was naive and hopeful and lost C Now I'm aware and driving my thoughts
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
C What do I do What do I do
I don't believe it if I don't keep proof Em I don't believe it if I don't know you D I don't believe it if it's on the news or on the Internet
I need a cigarette
[Chorus]
AmCEm I'm using white lighters to see what's in front of me AmC I'm using white lighters to see
[Verse]
Am R I P to my youth C And you could call this the funeral Em I'm just telling the truth G You can play this at my funeral Am Tell my sister don't cry and don't be sad C I'm in Paradise with Dad Em Close my eyes and then cross my arms G Put me in the dirt let me be with the stars
