Intro: Em  Bm  F  C 

verse 1 
Em        Bm  
Alexander all alone 
 F             C 
Smoking a cigarette 
    Em             Bm  
The last pack he’d ever buy 
    F                   C 
At least that’s what he said 
   Em          Bm  
He stood up to stretch his back 
    F                C 
And fell down to the ground 

verse 2 
Em        Bm  
Alexander all alone 
        F                 C 
Til the neighbor caught a glimpse 
Em        Bm         
Cried out for his wife 
   F            C 
to call the ambulance 
Em        Bm  
Alexander all alone 
F                   C 
Felt them check his pulse 

Pre-Chorus 
   Em          Bm           D     C 
He heard them pronounce him dead 

Em      Bm       D      C 
Hell is found inside of me 
    Em      D         Am     C 
And nothing else will set me free 
   Em      Bm      D       C 
If hell is found inside of me 
     G              F       Am    C 
Then open me up and spit me out 

verse 3 
Em        Bm  
Alexander wondered why 
   F                       C 
No life flashed before his eyes 
Em               Bm  
Why his soul did not depart 
       F                 C 
Why he found no peace of mind 
Em              Bm  
Would it take a little while 
           F             C  
Was it the same for everyone 

Pre-Chorus 
Em        Bm      D    C 
Alexander realized 

     Em       Bm      D      C 
That hell is found inside of me 
    Em      D         Am     C 
And nothing else will set me free 
   Em      Bm      D       C 
If hell is found inside of me 
     G              F       Am    C 
Then open me up and spit me out
