G Dm
If you hear this song aloud when I am not around
Am
Please know that everything will be alright
C
And life can't hurt you now
G
If your sick of days aquiver
Dm
Is it time to stand and shout?
Am C
Send your enemies to hiding instead of hiding out

C G
Believe me when I say I'm at peace with the day
Am G
When the dead will rise and take me to my grave
Dm Am C Am
But it's easier to look the o-t-h-e-r way
Em G
And no matter what your fucking neighbours say
Dm Am Em G C
I refuse to sober up and so dec - a - ay
Am C
It's what you say ... heh - ey

[Verse 2]
Em
Believe me when I shout
C
There's no point freaking out
Am G
You can't claim a single second lost to doubt
Dm Am
It's the movement of the atmosphere
C Am
The way you choose to disappear
Em G
The silent shout that's what you hear
Dm
Back up your regrets
C Am C
And wind down the days you toil
Am C
Write my name into the soil
[Chorus]
G Dm
If you hear this song aloud when I am not around
Am
Please know that everything will be alright
C
And life can't hurt you now
G
If your sick of days aquiver
Dm
Is it time to stand and shout?
Am C
Send your enemies to hiding instead of hiding out
[Chorus]
G Dm
And yes it's true we've loved and lost but in the end we've won
Am C
We've the best in friends and family and an endless thirst for fun
G Dm
With a love of the macabre and a sideline for bad jokes
Am C G Dm
We'd rather sing of Lovecraft than sit through Ho-lly - o-o - o-aks
Am C
No no no, no

[Outro]
G Dm
If you hear this song aloud when I am not around
Am
Please know that everything will be alright
C
Though I am in the ground
G Dm
'Cause it isn't where you finish, it's the way you run this race
Am C
And I intend to go the distance, but I'll do it at my own pace
