Intro D Bm A G x2
i was born a bitter old man who got his hea
rt broken in catalonia, 19
36.
i haven?t felt right s
ince, so i gave up on life before i arr
ived.
i knew this place wasn?t safe for anyone but
fascists and republicans and
their apologis
ts.
but i swear to
god, i?m gonna
die full of na
ive optimism;
a teenager?s heartbreaking conviction
that things can be different. oh yeah, things are gonna be real
different when we?re finished
around
here.
i always
wanted to die
young.
i always
wanted to die
young.
i always
wanted to die
young;
now i feel
younger every day
, and i just hope i die younger than i am.
Intro again (D Bm A G x2)
i can hear you from a dozen states away
shivering through a dope sick morning of
no money left and n
othing else to st
eal.
lord only knows that i?ve had my sh
are, because there were years when i was ready to di
e,
but it?s only been
recently that i?ve been
willing to live.
and i swear to g
od, i didn?t p
lan for things to e
nd up this way.
i had a teenager?s convictio
n that i would be different.
oh yeah,
i was gonna be real different than the person
i became.
i always
wanted to die
young.
i always
wanted to die
young.
i always
wanted to die
young;
now i feel
younger every
day, and i just hope i die younger than i am.
Bridge D Gm x4
but now living
?s a struggle,
except when it isn?t. (yeah),
i woke up this
morning and i wasn?t in p
rison,
but i can?t promise
that i?m far from i
t.
i?d still kill a man for cigarette,
but with friends like
you, who needs h
omicide?
so this song goes out to a
ll our homies locked d
own.
come on
back now, we need you a
round.
that judge, he
doesn?t know what he?s d
one.
no, judges
never know the things they d
o. how could they?
