[Intro] BmF#AEGBm
What's my problem?
Well, I want you to follow me
F#m
Down to the bottom
Underneath the insane asylum
A
Keep your wits about you while you got 'em
'Cause your wits are first to
E
Go while you're problem-solvin'
And my problem?
G
We glorify those even more when they
Bm
My opinion, our culture can treat a loss like
F#m
It's a win
And right before we turn on them
A
We give 'em the highest of praise
And hang their banner
E
From the ceiling
Communicating, further engraving
G
An earlier grave is an optional way, no
BmF#m
Neon gravestones try to call
(Neon gravestones try to call)
AE
Neon gravestones try to call for my bones
(Neon gravestones try to call)
G
Call (For my bones)
Call, call, call (Call, call)
BmF#mAE
Call (Call)
G
Call (Call)
Bm
What's my problem?
Don't get it twisted
F#m
It's with the people we praise who may have assisted
A
I could use the streams and extra conversations
E
I could give up, and boost up my reputation
G
I could go out with a bang
They would know my name
They would host and post a celebration
Bm
My opinion will not be lenient
F#m
My opinion, it's real convenient
A
Our words are loud, but now I'm talking action
E
We don't get enough love?
Well, they get a fraction
G
They say, "How could he go if he's got everything?
I'll mourn for a kid, but won't cry for a king"
BmF#m
Neon gravestones try to call
(Neon gravestones try to call)
AE
Neon gravestones try to call for my bones
(Neon gravestones try to call)
G
Call (For my bones)
Call, call, call (Call, call)
BmF#mAE
Call (Call)
G
Call (Call)
A
Promise me this (Call, call)
Bm
If I lose to myself
Em
You won't mourn a day
D
And you'll move onto someone else
A
Promise me this
Bm
If I lose to myself
Em
You won't mourn a day
D
And you'll move onto someone else
(Ooh, call, ooh, call)
ABm
Neon gravestones try to call
(Neon gravestones try to call)
EmD
Neon gravestones try to call for my bones
(Neon gravestones try to call)
A
But they won't get them
Bm
No, they won't get them
Em
They won't get them
D
But they won't get them
A
Don't get me wrong, the rise in awareness
Bm
Is beating a stigma that no longer scares us
Em
But for sake of discussion, in spirit of fairness
D
Could we give this some room for a new point of view?
A
And could it be true that some could be tempted
Bm
To use this mistake as a form of aggression?
Em
A form of succession?
A form of a weapon?
D
Thinking "I'll teach them"
A
Well, I'm refusing the lesson
Bm
It won't resonate in our minds
Em
I'm not disrespecting what was left behind
D
Just pleading that it does not get glorified
A
Maybe we swap out what it is that we hold so high
Bm
Find your grandparents or someone of age
Em
Pay some respects for the path that they paved
D
To life, they were dedicated
A
Now, that should be celebrated
