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