Death 4 My Birthday (CHORDS) by Modern Baseball
[Verse 1]~
D Bm
Let me guide you through the story of a boy and his curse
D Bm Em
Tiny diamond in his stroller with his first step chasing the hearse
A
Sippin' at a cup that's half way filled
F#m A
But looking forward to the day he pays that drinking bill
D Bm D
There's no peace,..!! there's no quiet on this earth
Bm
He confided,..!! nestled tightly in that womb beneath the dirt
G A
Hurt no more and when he turned 24
F#m D A
He wrote a note to nail to God's front door that said
[Chorus]~
D
I want death
Death for my birthday
G
I want death
Death in the worst way
D
I want death
G
Death for my birthday
Don't get me wrong cause!!
Bm
I love life
But life has a boyfriend
A
Bless my soul
I'm out to destroy them
D
I want death
G
Death for my birthday
G G G
[Verse 2]~
D
From the high paying job and the love of his life
Bm
He rode a roller coaster ride of lust on their wedding night
Em A
They made a baby in unmentionable ways
F#m G A D
He was ungrateful as a man could be on that blessed day
Bm
And underneath he thought this is all a phase
Just a blip in the existence of a structure vast and great
Em A
Pray each night to his cross of a charm
F#m G A
For the one thing he couldn't afford just to buy the farm
[Chorus]~
D
I want death
Death for my birthday
G
I want death
Death in the worst way
D
I want death
G
Death for my birthday
Don't get me wrong cause!!
Bm
I love life
But life has a boyfriend
A
Bless my soul
I'm out to destroy them
D
I want death
G
Death for my birthday
G G G
[Bridge]~
D G
I'll never lose another friend again
D G
Or watch them start a war that's fought for ideals that are dead
A
I'll never have an argument again
G
Because my dust
D
will be your salt
G D G
My blood will hydrate you all
A Bm
My heart will be your meal
D G
And I won't ride the cycle of the way it kills to think and feel
No more,..!! no
[Chorus]~
D
I want death
Death for my birthday

A

I'm out to destroy them
D
I want death
G
Death for my birthday
D G
One sweet day his heart ceased to beat
D
He fell so fast beneath all our feet
Through bugs and snakes
G D
Last words he had to say were
Bm D
Help me claw my way to the surface
Oh sweet lord you know I deserve this
G
Just one more,..!! just one more birthday
