 Dried up,  a guitar  upon my knee
 Should have sold out  when the devil  came for me
 Dig a hole  and throw  it out to sea
 Break the code, how happy  I could be
 I still  wave at the dots  on the shore
 I still  beat my head  against the  wall
 I still  rage and wage  my little  war
 I'm a shade and easy  to ignore
 White wall, I had to paint a door
 I always find that I've been through it before
 Close it up and throw away the key
 Break the code, how happy I could be
 Woke up and I had a big idea
 Buy a new soul at the start of every year
 I paid up and it cost me pretty dear
 Here's a hymn to those that disappear
 That's it!
 e-mail me if you've got any questions or corrections.

[Dsus2]      Dried [C]up, a gui[G]tar upon my knee

[Dsus2]      Should have sold o[C]ut when the d[G]evil came for me

[Dsus2]      Dig a h[C]ole and th[G]row it out to sea

[Bb]      Break the code, how h[A]appy I could be

[Bb]      I s[C]till wave at the [Dsus2]dots on the [Fmaj7]shore

[Bb]      I s[C]till beat my [Dsus2]head against the[Fmaj7] wall

[Bb]      I st[C]ill rage and [Dsus2]wage my little[Fmaj7] war

[Bb]      I'm a shade and e[A]asy to ignore

White wall, I had to paint a door
I always find that I've been through it before
Close it up and throw away the key
Break the code, how happy I could be

Woke up and I had a big idea
Buy a new soul at the start of every year
I paid up and it cost me pretty dear
Here's a hymn to those that disappear

That's it!
