***A note about the chords below..The correct voicing for the Fmin chord is to bar it at 
8th fret.  And the Bb chord at the 6th fret.  That's how it is on the recording..You 
obviously interpret it however you wish though.***

VERSE 1

Db                              Ab
I hope that our few remaining friends

Gb                           Db
give up on trying to save us.

Db                                             Ab
I hope we come up with a fail-safe plot

    Gb                                          Db
to piss off the dumb few who forgave us.

Db                            Ab
I hope the fences we mended

Gb                                       Ab
fall down beneath their own weight.

Db                                               Ab
And I hope we hang on past the last exit.

Gb                            Ab
I hope its already too late.

PRECHORUS

Db
And I hope the junkyard a few blocks from here

Bbmin
           someday burns down.

Gb
And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away,

                           Ab                         Gb
and i never come back to this town  again.

CHORUS

Gb     Ab
in my life

            Db
i hope i lie

              Gb
and tell everyone you were a good wife.

                       Db
and i hope you die!

                       Ab
i hope we both die!
