Mr. Chainsaw  Alkaline Trio

alternate way of playing Mr. Chainsaw acoustically
[G] [D] [Em] [C]  
[G]When was it that you lost your youth or [C]traded
[G]It for something more for them to use so[C] jaded
[Em]Why is it that you never said
[D]I love you more than just a friend
[C]I pray this gridlock never ends
[D]And when we get there just depends
[G]I found out recently that you are [C]leaving
[G]For good I hope I softly tell my c[C]eiling
[Em]It's better now to be alive
[D]Sleeping is my 9 to 5
[C]I'm having nightmares all the time
[D]Of running out of words that rhyme
[G]Everything that you could never [D]say
Would never matter [Em]anyway
I took a hammer and two [C]nails to my eardrums long [G]ago
[G]Before that steak knife took my [D]eyes
I looked up to the [Em]sky
For the last thing I would [D]ever see
For the last time I'd [G]cry
[G] [D] [Em] [C]  
[G]When was it that you sold your life or [C]wasted
[G]Every bite of that small slice you never [C]tasted
[Em]I guess I should be one to talk
[D]There's nights that I can't even walk
[C]There's days I couldn't give a f**k
[D]And in between is where I'm stuck
[G] [C]  
[G]That small child inside of you that you left [C]bleeding
[Em]You stabbed him up not once but twice
[D]Cubicles will now suffice
[C]Some say it's the roll of the dice
[D]I think they're wrong I know I'm right
[G]Every breath that I could barely [D]breathe
Could barely make it past my [Em]teeth
I took a blowtorch to both [C]of my lungs a long long time [G]ago
[G]Every step that I could [D]take
Each one more difficult to m[Em]ake
Mr. Chainsaw came and [C]took my legs a long, long time [G]ago
[G] [D] [Em] [C]  
[G]In case you're wondering
I'm singing [C]about growing up [D]about giving in
[G]In case you're wondering
I'm singing [C]about growing up [D]about giving in
[G]In case you're wondering
I'm singing [C]about growing up [D]about giving in
[G]In case you're wondering
We're singin[C]g about growing u[D]p about giving in
[G]In case you're wondering
We're singin[C]g about growing u[D]p about giving in
[G]In case you're wondering
We're singin[C]g about growing u[D]p, about giving up and giving [G]in
