(Here lies Charlie.
C7Fmaj7D
You can tell it's him 'cause we put his name on the stone.)
Gm7
He kept his showers ice cold,
C7
Used eco-friendly lightbulbs
Fmaj7D
Rode his bicycle to work when the gasoline price rose
Gm7C7
He'd judge with no pretense, fish on the weekends
Fmaj7D
Each morning, get up, do the Pledge of Allegience
Gm7C7
Never swim in the ocean, for fear of shark attacks
Fmaj7D
Bi-monthly get his wife a rose with a card attached
Gm7C7
Avoiding all the little things that were hard to ask
Fmaj7D
Had a car crash, cardiac arrest, died of a heart attack
Gm7C7
Up the golden escalator, all his friends and neighbors
Fmaj7D
Huddled there in prayer around the respirator
Gm7C7
Catch you later, I'm off to see the man upstairs
Fmaj7
They all look like ants from here
D
Stars and crystal chandaliers
Gm7
There was an angel at the entrance
C7
Checking off a guest list
Fmaj7D
Charlie wasn't on it, and was ushered to the exit
Gm7C7Fmaj7D
His heart sank, he was breathless
Gm7
Excuse me, sir!
C7
There must be someone you've confused me for
Fmaj7D
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
Gm7C7
I go to church on Sunday, truly, usually more!
Fmaj7D
Screaming at the angels while they pushed him through the door!
Gm7
Excuse me, sir!
C7
There must be someone you've confused me for
Fmaj7D
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
Gm7C7
I go to church on sunday, truly, usually more!
Fmaj7D
Screaming at the angels while they pushed him through the door!
Gm7C7
"Abandon all hope, all ye who enter."
Fmaj7D
It was a horrifying sign, but sounded like a neat adventure.
Gm7C7
Far beyond the halos and the castles in the clouds
Fmaj7D
Fatsos squealing, shackled with some apples in their mouths
Gm7C7
Attention whores in padded bras hanging from extension cords
Fmaj7D
Tortured with the products from their favorite catalogs
Gm7C7
Here, we buy and sell a million kinds of Hell
Fmaj7D
Imagination is the limit to the devil's clientelle
Gm7C7
Up a dingy elevator, no televised debate
Fmaj7
Will save you from the Hell you paid for
D
Sorry buddy, smell you later
Gm7
Side-stepped fate
C7
Went right for the gate
Fmaj7D
But you know the devil, he loves a good chase!
Gm7C7
There was a demon at the entrance, making X's on a checklist
Fmaj7D
Who would kick you in the ass when you begged him for repentance
Gm7C7
Those tempted by the senses with the cruelest of intentions
Fmaj7D
Charlie's heart sank, he was breathless
Gm7
Excuse me, sir!
C7
There must be someone you've confused me for
Fmaj7D
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
Gm7C7
I really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune before
Fmaj7D
Screaming at the demons while they pushed him through the door!
Gm7
Excuse me, sir!
C7
There must be someone you've confused me for
Fmaj7D
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
Gm7C7
I really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune before
Fmaj7D
Screaming at the demons while they pushed him through the door!
Gm7C7
You can run from your demons until you are exhausted
Fmaj7D
One day you will have to stop and find out what they wanted
Gm7C7Fmaj7D
A-running from those demons until you are exhausted
Gm7C7
You can run to those angels until you are exhausted
Fmaj7D
One day you will have to stop and question what they wanted
Gm7C7Fmaj7D
Keep on running to those angels until you are exhausted
Gm7
Excuse me, sir!
C7
There must be someone you've confused me for
Fmaj7D
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
(I don't want to die)
Gm7C7Fmaj7D
I really don’t belong here, I know you’ve heard the tune before
(Please don’t let me die)
