Bm
               D/A
Is this what I lived for?
                  E
To be choked in a toy store
      G       A          Bm
While staring into hell
                        D/A
There's something that's beautiful
                   E
Being awake for my funeral
        G         A           G
You can close the casket now

[Pre-Chorus]
                 A
The plans for my father's hopeless seed
D/A       A          G
Born into moral poverty
                    A
Still, I wasn't the angel heaven sent
   D/A              A             G
To break through my cliché boundaries

[Chorus]
       Bm        A         G
'Cause Friday is black for me
    G           A           Bm
The dreamer has dreamed her dream
     G         A
When Friday is black
        Bm         A
There's no turning back
       G         A         Bm
'Cause Friday is black for me

[Verse 2]
                        Bm
Is there some lesson to learn
                    D/A
Should I never have wanted?
                 E
I never even got started
            G            A                   Bm
Or were the decks always just this stacked
                      D/A
I mean, it's really a godsend
                       E
Clear my plans for the weekend
            G       A           G
But there's nothing to subtract

[Pre-Chorus]
                  A
I don't want your half-baked sympathy
D/A         A             G
When did it save those in need?
                      A
Still, I thought that angels did exist
    D/A             A              G
But now I hope they plan to end it quick

[Chorus]
       Bm        A         G
'Cause Friday is black for me
        G          A       Bm
Only my ashes will see the sea
     G         A
When Friday is black
        Bm         A
There's no turning back
       G         A         B
'Cause Friday is black for me

[Bridge]
   B                            Em
At first I didn't know what she was to me
   B                         Em
At first I didn't know why I cared
         G
Or why I wanted
   D/A          A           B
To hold her and rock her to sleep
      D/A           A               B
Did I need her more than she needed me?
G         A
Maybe I'm wrong
        Bm        D/A
She can go on her own
    G   A
But I'm leaving

[Chorus]
       Bm        A         G
'Cause Friday is black for me
        G          A       Bm
Only my ashes will see the sea
     G         A
When Friday is black
        Bm         A
There's no turning back
       G         A
'Cause Friday is black-

Bm D/A E G
