C
I never thought
F
I'd die alone
Am             F
I laughed the loudest
who'd have known?
C             F
I traced the cord
back to the wall
Am                F
No wonder it was never
plugged in at all
C
I took my time
F
I hurried up
Am              F
The choice was mine
I didn't think enough
C
I'm too depressed
F     Am
to go on You'll
    F
be sorry when
     C   Dm Am F C Dm Am F
I'm gone

Chorus:
C       Dm
I never conquered
       Am
rarely came
              F
Sixteen just held
such better days
C         Dm
Days when I still
      Am
felt alive
             F
We couldn't wait
to get out
 C
side The world was
Dm                Am
wide too late to try
             F
The tour was over
         C
we'd survived
           Dm
I couldn't wait
           Am
till I got home
             F
To pass the time
in my room alone

I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months, I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never step foot in my room again
You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell Mom this is not her fault

Chorus

I never conquered, rarely came
Tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I can still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside
The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I've survived
And I can't wait 'til I get home
To pass the time in my room alone
