Paramedics  brave and strong
 1 2 G
 Up before the break of dawn
Putting  poker faces on
 1 2 G
 Broken bodies all day long
 The neighbors  heard the fight
Am
Someone had a knife
F C Am-----Em
 It must have been the wiiiiiife
Husband's  lost  a lot of blood
 1 2 G
 He wakes up screaming oh my god
 Chorus..sorta...
 Am I gonna die,  am I gonna die?
  1 2 G
 As they strapped his arms down to the sides
 Times like these  they've been taught to lie
  1 2 G
 Buddy just calm down you'll be alright
Several  friends came to his grave
  1 2 G
 His children were so well behaved
As  the priest got up to speak
 1 2 G
 The assembly craved relief
 But he  himself had given up
  1 2 G
 So instead he offered them this bitter cup
 Second Chorus kinda thingy
 You're gonna die
 We're all gonna die
  1 2
 Could be twenty years
 Could be tonight
 Lately I  have been wondering why
  1
 We go to so much trouble
  1
 To postpone the unavoidable
  1 2 G
 And prolong the pain of being alive
 There you go. I'm almost 100% sure these are the chords David plays when he plays it
  I froze the video and put my fingers where his were and it sounds the same. So after you
 those 2 chords i don't know the names are, you have yourself a correct version of
 and Paramedics to play on your acoustic whenever you please = )
