 Play E at standard 16ths until he starts singing, listen to song for the
 strumming pattern, really simple and constant throughout the song.
Downright  hopelessness
 When the wrath of consequence comes
Knocking  on that old front door
 And we  count the ways
 the seconds that fall into place with
the  emptiness don’t hold the phone
 I know  some are counting on
 God above or methadone
 to kill  the wake and take away the pain
 I feel  for the lost and empathize the cost
 For calamity  from what I’ve seen
 Open up and wail  Open up and cry
 We are not the type  and far young to die
 In a rattled cage  heads against the wall
 Through dangerous nights
 No more lullabies,  open up and wail
We’ve  got what it takes
 Everything that needs to make a fighting  chance
 At carrying the load of falling  day to day
 A gruesome cold reality square in  the nose
 Bleeding to the toes
 Open up and wail  Open up and cry
 We are not the type  and far young to die
 In a rattled cage  heads against the wall
 Through dangerous nights
 No more lullabies
 Open up and wail  Open up and cry
 We are not the type  and far young to die
 In a rattled cage  heads against the wall
 Through dangerous nights
 No more lullabies,  open up and wail
 Open up and wail
 Thanks...

[E]Downright hopelessness

When the wrath of consequence comes
[A]Knocking on that old front door
And [B]we count the ways

the seconds that fall into place with
[A]the emptiness don’t hold the phone
I [E]know some are counting on

God above or methadone
to [A]kill the wake and take away the pain
I [B]feel for the lost and empathize the cost
For cal[A]amity from what I’ve [A]seen

Open up and [E]wail Open up and [B]cry
We are not the [C#m]type and far young to [A2]die
In a rattled [E]cage heads against the [B]wall
Through dangerous [C#m]nights
No more lulla[A2]bies, open up and [B2]wail   [A2]       [Ab]           [F#]

[E]We’ve got what it takes
Everything that needs to make a [A]fighting chance
At carrying the load of [B]falling day to day
A gruesome cold reality square [A]in the nose
Bleeding to the [A]toes

Open up and [E]wail Open up and [B]cry
We are not the [C#m]type and far young to [A2]die
In a rattled [E]cage heads against the [B]wall
Through dangerous [C#m]nights
No more lulla[A2]bies
Open up and [E2]wail Open up and [B]cry
We are not the [C#m]type and far young to [A2]die
In a rattled [E2]cage heads against the [B]wall
Through dangerous [C#m]nights
No more lulla[A2]bies, open up and [B2]wail
Open up and [E]wail

Thanks...
