  			Am              Em 
Don't play pop music 
Am                  Em 
You know I hate pop music 
 Am         Em              Am   Em 
Just sing amazing godless grace 

Am                Em 
Don't wear bright colours 
Am                     Em 
You know I hate bright colours 
Am                Em               Am 
I never liked you for the way you dressed 
Em 
Anyway 
Am   Em   C          F 
Goodbye lovers and friends 
Am  Em      C    F 
So sad to leave you 
Am         Em 
When they lie and say 
  C       F 
(This is not the end) 
Am        Em 
You can laugh as if 
  C            F 
We're still together 
Am        Em            C   F 
You can laugh about it all 

(Am Em) 
I hope you didn't bring flowers 
Hope you didn't write a poem 
Hope you remember every fight 
I know I could be noxious 
Or occasionally cruel 
But only to the ones 
I loved 

Am   Em   C          F 
Goodbye lovers and friends 
Am  Em      C    F 
So sad to leave you 
Am         Em 
When they lie and say 
  C       F 
(This is not the end) 
Am        Em 
You can laugh as if 
  C            F 
We're still together 
Am        Em            C   F 
You can laugh about it all 

( F Am) 
Don't get inventory 
Don't fake your memory 
Don't give me virtues that I never had 
Don't get sychophantal 
We never were sentimental 
I know I took more than I ever gave 

(Am Em) 
I don't need to be forgiven 
But a moment from the living 
That's the only thing I ask 

Am   Em   C          F 
Goodbye lovers and friends 
Am  Em      G    A 
So sad to leave you 
C          Em 
When they lie and say 
  C       F 
(This is not the end) 
Am        Em 
You can laugh as if 
  C            F 
We're still together 
Am        Em            C 
But this really is the end
