Intro: Ebm | Abm | Db | Gbmaj
       Bmaj | Abm | Bbsus₄ | Bb

Ebm         Abm
My heart is paralyzed,
Db          Gb
My head was oversized,
B             Abm              Bbsus₄  Bb
I’ll take the high road like I should.
Ebm            Abm
You said, it’s meant to be
Db            Gb
That it’s not you, it’s me,
B              Abm            Bbsus₄ Bb
You’re leaving now for my own good.

          Bb
   That’s cool,
   But if my friends ask where you are
   I’m gonna say…

Chorus:
              B
     She went down in an airplane,
     Gb
     Fried getting suntanned.
   Db                 Ebm
     Fell in a cement mixer
             Ebm₇  
     Full of quicksand.
     B
     Help me, help me,
     Gb                 Fm    Bb
     I’m no good at goodbyes.

               B
     She met a shark under water,
     Gb
     Fell and no one caught her,
   Db                Ebm
     I returned everything
            Ebm₇  
     I ever bought her.
     B
     Help me, help me,
     Gb             Bb
     I’m all out of lies
                         Ebm
     And ways to say you died.

Instrumental: Ebm | Abm | Db | Gbmaj
              Bmaj | Abm | Bbsus₄ | Bb

My pride still feels the sting,
You were my everything,
Some day I’ll find a love like yours.
(A love like yours.)
She’ll think I’m Superman,
Not super minivan.
How could you leave on Yom Kippur?

   That’s cool,
   But if my friends ask where you are
   I’m gonna say…

Chorus:
     She was caught in a mudslide,
     Eaten by a lion,
     Got run over by a crappy
     Purple Scion.
     Help me, help me,
     I’m no good at goodbyes.

     She dried up in the desert,
     Drowned in a hot tub,
     Danced to death at an east side
     Night club.
     Help me, help me,
     I’m all out of lies
     And ways to say you died.

Instrumental: Ebm | Abm | Db | Gb
              B | Abm | Bbm | B

     Gb                    Gbmaj   
   I wanna live a thousand lives with you,
     B                          Db  
   I wanna be the one you dying to
   Ebm₇   Db
   Love,
 Gb              B     Ebm   Db  
   But you don’t want to.

          Bb
   That’s cool,
   But if my friends ask where you are
   I’m gonna say…

          Bb
   That’s cool,
   But if my friends ask where you are
   I’m gonna say…

     And ways to say you died.
