Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu “The Noose” dari The Offspring:
Em G
Well, our souls are all mistaken in the same misguided way
D Em
We all end up forsaken, we're just choosing our own way
Em G
The future now incinerates before our very eyes
D Em
And leaves us with the emptiness of no more tries
Em G
Well, our visions of glory now have spiraled down the drain
D Em
The best of our intentions now come crashing down in flames
G D/F#
The depths of our despair we are unable to contain
G
It's shallow living
Chorus:
Em
The noose is falling
G
And all my friends are crawling
D
The noose is falling
Em
And enemies are rising
Em
A truth appalling
G
Our Maker comes a-calling
D
The noose is falling
Em
And enemies are rising
Well, the tracers from yesteryear are burning in the dust
Your bruises are reminders of naivety and trust
You're only feeling stronger ’cause your body's getting numb
Now I lay you down
Put the coins in your eyes
And blow the candles out
Chorus - x2

No more! (No more!)
G
No more! (No more!)
D Em
Nothing!
Em
No more! (No more!)

No more! (No more!)

No (No!) more!
Em G D Em
No (No!) more!
Chorus
Em
The noose is falling
C
And all my friends are crawling

The noose is falling

And enemies are rising!
