Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Play E at standard 16ths until he starts singing, listen to song for the

strumming pattern, really simple and constant throughout the song.

Downright hopelessness

When the wrath of consequence comes

Knocking on that old front door

And we count the ways

the seconds that fall into place with

the emptiness don’t hold the phone

I know some are counting on

God above or methadone

to kill the wake and take away the pain

I feel for the lost and empathize the cost

For calamity from what I’ve seen

Open up and wail Open up and cry

We are not the type and far young to die

In a rattled cage heads against the wall

Through dangerous nights

No more lullabies, open up and wail

We’ve got what it takes

Everything that needs to make a fighting chance

At carrying the load of falling day to day

A gruesome cold reality square in the nose

Bleeding to the toes

Open up and wail Open up and cry

We are not the type and far young to die

In a rattled cage heads against the wall

Through dangerous nights

No more lullabies

Open up and wail Open up and cry

We are not the type and far young to die

In a rattled cage heads against the wall

Through dangerous nights

No more lullabies, open up and wail

Open up and wail

Thanks...
