[Verse 1]
D G Bm Bm
I just wanna say that I’m sorry in advance,
D G Bm Bm
count on me like clockwork, it won’t work.
D G Bm Bm
The only promise I can make is I’m changing all my plans
D G Bm Bm
and you’ll never see me again.
[Verse 2]
D G Bm Bm
I’m warning you it’s over before it began,
D G Bm Bm
we’re diving in headfirst, in reverse.
D G D A
You’re swimming through my wake and I’m slipping through your hands
Bm G D A
and you’ll never see me again.
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G
Typical, it’s so cyclical
Em A
I got one foot out the door but I don’t fight it anymore.
[Chorus]
G D/F# Em Em** D/F#** G
Don’t hold your breath, I’m faking my own death,
D/F# Em Em** D/F#** G
I’ll drop a burning match and burn the bridge that takes me back.
D/F# Em Em** D/F#** G
I’m putting it to rest, I’m faking my own death,
D/F# Em Em** D/F#** G D Em
three years passes and I’m rising from the ashes,
Em** D/F#** G D E E
I’m rising from the ashes.
[Verse 3]
D G Bm Bm
I’m stuck repeating history and I just can’t help myself,
D G Bm Bm
it’s almost like I’m always someone else.
D G D A
There’s nothing you could say to me in sickness or in health,
Bm G D A
I hate it just as well.
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G
Typical, it’s so cyclical
Em A
I got one foot out the door but I don’t fight it anymore.
[Chorus]
G D/F# Em Em** D/F#** G
Don’t hold your breath, I’m faking my own death,
D/F# Em Em** D/F#** G
I’ll drop a burning match and burn the bridge that takes me back.
D/F# Em Em** D/F#** G
I’m putting it to rest, I’m faking my own death,
D/F# Em Em** D/F#** G D Em
three years passes and I’m rising from the ashes,
Em** D/F#** G D Em Em** D/F#** G D Em
I’m rising from the ashes, I’m missing in action,
Em** D/F#** G D Em Em
three years passing.
[End-Chorus]
G D/F# Em Em** D/F#** G
Don’t hold your breath, I’m faking my own death,
D/F# Em Em** D/F#** G
I’ll drop a burning match and burn the bridge that takes me back.
D/F# Em Em** D/F#** G

I’m rising from the ashes.
