[Verse 1]
Em
Everything will soon turn black,
                     C
so here's my letter.
                 D
To get it off my chest.
Em
Promise father, don't look back,
                         C
it's not for the better.
                      D
I know you tried your best.

[Chorus]
C                  D                           
Everybody seems so happy like they all share
B7                           Em
something I haven't felt for years.
    C                            D 
For long I've tried to just hold on but now I don't care
    B7                           Em
I'm closing down my thoughts and fears.
      C                D      Em
So forgive me, life is cruel.
        C       D   
Now I'm leaving you.

[Verse 2]
Em
Hear you little brother me,
                 C
you know I'm sorry,
                 D
for every high hand.
Em
Give my love to mother,please
                   C
tell her not to worry.
                    D
I hope she'll understand.


[Chorus]
C                  D                           
Everybody seems so happy like they all share
B7                           Em
something I haven't felt for years.
    C                            D 
For long I've tried to just hold on but now I don't care
    B7                           Em
I'm closing down my thoughts and fears.
      C                D      Em
So forgive me, life is cruel.
        C       D   
Now I'm leaving you.
      C                D      Em
Yeah forgive me, life is cruel.
        C       D   
Now I'm leaving you.

[Bridge]
G                               D
So long, don't wait for me in vain.
D                                 Em
What's wrong with being free from pain?
Em                                   C
Be strong and live your lives like I never could.
G                             D
Farewell, let the memories be nice.
D                                  Em
To hell!? Don't think you go there twice.
Em                                   C
I'm well off right here, it's more than good.
Em
So farewell.

[Chorus]
C                  D                           
Everybody seems so happy like they all share
B7                           Em
something I haven't felt for years.
    C                            D 
For long I've tried to just hold on but now I don't care

I'm closing down my thoughts and fears.
      C                D      Em
So forgive me, life is cruel.
