[Intro]
Cm


[Verse 1]
CmShe was just 17
AbPious and pretty with a deadly disease
Cm F Ab BbAnd the weight of the world on her prosthetic shoulder
CmAnd by the summer of '96
AbHer body was cracked like porcelain
Cm FJust like some precious moments collectible
Ab EbIn a hospital gown and a big bright golden halo...
[Chorus]
Fm Gm Eb Cm Ab And so three cheers for my morose and grieving pals
Bb Eb FmAnd now let's hear it for the tears that i've welled up
Gm Eb Cm AbWe've come too far to have to give it all up now
Bb EbWe live lives that are rich and blessed
EbAnd we'll burn for how we transgress...
[Instrumental] Cm Ab Bb Cm Ab Bb [Verse 2]
CmNow i've mastered the art
AbOf the open casket prayer and the singing guitar
Cm Fm GmAnd i've found the rewards weren't half what i'd hoped for
Cm EbAnd meanwhile we all feigned hope and mirth
AbAs her parents went on and lied to her
CmAll about the success of the surgeries
Fm GmAnd how my ex-girlfriend was now sleeping with her fiancé
[Chorus]
Fm Gm Eb Cm Ab And so three cheers for my morose and grieving pals
Bb Eb FmAnd now let's hear it for the tears that i've welled up
Gm Eb Cm AbWe've come too far to have to give it all up now
Bb EbWe live lives that are rich and blessed
EbAnd we'll burn for how we transgress...

[Bridge]
CmIf there's any justice in heaven
BbThen God won't let me in
Gm AbHe'll lock the gates and take my weekend pass away
Eb CmWith a sympathetic wave they'll see me off
Bb GmReserve my golden crown while I am cursed to walk the earth for a millenia
AbI know I deserve worse but it terrifies me and I can't take it anymore...
[Chorus]
Fm Gm Eb Cm Ab And so three cheers for my morose and grieving pals
Bb Eb FmAnd now let's hear it for the tears that i've welled up
Gm Eb Cm AbWe've come too far to have to give it all up now
Bb EbWe live lives that are rich and blessed
EbAnd we'll burn for how we transgress
