Verse:
E5
One is for envy and one just for spite
    C5
The cuts in my heart, they show in your eyes
G5
Don't make it better
                             D5
The twisting knife turns all by itself, on to someone else

E5
Your self-liberation will leave this behind
      C5
Beyond slings and arrows, bearing on our mind
   G5
Don't make it better
                       D5
Shake it off, it never mattered, anyway
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/o/offspring/half_truism_crd_ver_2.html ]
G5                   D5
If we don't make it alive
                 B5          E5
It's a hell of a good day to die.
        D5                C5
All our light that shines strong
     D5           G5
Only lasts for so long.
G5                       D5
And it's ashes to ashes again
               B5        E5
Should we even try to pretend?
        D5                 C5
All our light that shines strong
     D5           G5
Only lasts for so long.

    E5
The banner you're waving is burning in red
     C5
It's blocking the sunlight, that shines overhead
G5
You against the world
                              D5
Diamonds and pearls, voices inside you churn, watch the city burn

     E5
Your own liberation will leave them behind
C5
All the slings and arrows, bearing on your mind
G5
Don't make it better
                         D5
Break it 'cause it never mattered anyway

G5                   D5
If we don't make it alive
                 B5          E5
It's a hell of a good day to die.
        D5                C5
All our light that shines strong
     D5           G5
Only lasts for so long.
G5                       D5
And it's ashes to ashes again
               B5        E5
Should we even try to pretend?
        D5                 C5
All our light that shines strong
     D5           E5
Only lasts for so long.


(E5), C5, G5, D5

E5 C5    G5   D5
I won't come down

   E5
The banner you're waving
C5
Is burning in red
G5
You against the world, diamonds and pearls
         D5
It never mattered, mattered, mattered anyway


G5                   D5
If we don't make it alive
                 B5          E5
It's a hell of a good day to die.

All our light that shines strong
     D5           G5
Only lasts for so long.
G5                       D5
And it's ashes to ashes again
               B5        E5
Should we even try to pretend?
        D5                 C5
All our light that shines strong
     D5           E5
Only lasts for so long.
        D5                 C5
All our light that shines strong
     D5           G5
Only lasts for so long.
