It's Not A Fashion Statement, It's A Deathwish Ukulele

(ver. 1)
My Chemical Romance
capo 4, I think. I often play it in Em (Em / C / D / B7 /) but that's
preference. also my guitar hasn't seen a tuner in years and it's probably
more than a full step out by now from bad ear tuning.
don't forget the eye make-up. and teen angst etc.

INTRO
Am / F / G /E7 /
(I find screaming, 'FOR WHAT YOU DID TO ME' won't win you many friends, so
 we can miss that bit out if you wan't)

Am
Do you remember back there
F
When we met?
    G                 E7
You told me this gets harder
        Am
Well it did
                   F
Been holding on forever
                G
Promise me that when I'm gone
       E7         F
You'll kill my enemies

           G
The damage you've inflicted
E7        /
Temporary wounds
           F             G
I'm coming back from the dead
                  E7
And I'll take you home with me

                      (mute and strum :)
           E7   F   E7   x x x x x   F
I'm taking back the life you stole

                  G
We never got that far
                 C
This helps me to think
    G           Am     F
All through the night
                   G             C
Bright lights that won't kill me now
   G       Am
Or tell me how
     F
Just you and I
     G             Am
Your starless eyes remain

           Am
Hip hip hooray for me
    F
You talk to me
              G             E7
But would you kill me in my sleep?
                      Am
Lay still like the dead
                      F
                 G
We could lose ourselves
                E7
And paint these walls in pitchfork red

F       G
I will avenge my ghost
     E7             F
With every breath i take
           F             G
I'm coming back from the dead
                   E7
And I'll take you home with me
           E7   F   E7   x x x x x   F
I'm taking back the life you stole

C                     F
This hole you put me in
                   (-2-0-4-2-1-0-?)    You'll need to use your thumb for this
                                       one, and I know i've written F#m but
                                       it sounds really sh*t if you do. find
                                       E7 works okay instead, but it's not
             F#m                       the same)
Wasn't deep enough
                 G                 Am
And I'm climbing out right now
               E7             F
You're running out of places
   G         C
To hide from me

         F
When you go
               F#m      G      Am
Just know that I will remember you
                  E7
If living was the hardest part
               F
We'll then one day
     G      C
Be together
                     F
And in the end we'll fall apart
              F#m
Just like the leaves
          G         F      Am
Change in colours
                        E7
And then I will be with you
          F              G         C
I will be there one last time now

         F
When you go
               F#m      G      Am
Just know that I will remember you

(It goes on in a similar vein...)

I've lost my fear of falling
I will be with you
I will be with you


Maybe not their seminal work but a lovely piece of pop-punk-emo melodrama.
