VERSE:
Chords:
C  x32010    Am x02210
G  320033    F  x33211

C                        G
This is how it works, it feels a little worse
     Am                             F
Than when we drove our hearse right through that screaming crowd
      C                     G
While laughing up a storm until we were just bone
  Am                      F
Until it got so warm that none of us could sleep
    C                   G
And all the styrofoam began to melt away
   Am                          F
We tried to find some worms to aid in the decay
    C                       G
But all of them were home inside their catacomb
  Am                     F
A million ancient bees began to sting our knees
      C                     G
While we were on our knees, praying that disease
      Am                         F
Would leave the ones we love and never come again


CHORUS:
Chords:
C  x32010    Am x02210
G  320033    F  x33211

    C                G
And on the radio, we heard November Rain
     Am                   F
That solo's real long but it's a pretty song
   C                                G
We listened to it twice, 'cause the DJ was asleep


[play: | Am | F |]


VERSE:
C                            G
This is how it works, you're young until you're not
    Am                        F
You love until you don't, you try until you can't
    C                        G
You laugh until you cry, you cry until you laugh
    Am                      F
And everyone must breathe until their dying breath
    C                         G
No, this is how it works, you peer inside yourself
    Am                                  F
You take the things you like and try to love the things you took
         C                           G
Then you take that love you made and stick it into some
Am                            F
Someone else's heart, pumping someone else's blood
    C                       G
And walking arm in arm, you hope it don't get harmed
    Am                           F
But even if it does, you'll just do it all again


[repeat CHORUS]
