[Intro]

Esus E G Bm
Esus E G Bm

[Verse]

             Esus
On the day that Daniel Cowman stopped existing
          E
The world should've ended right then and there
          G
At precisely four-fifteen when he stopped existing
        Bm
The world should've ended, how could it go on, how could it go on when
Esus                                  E
I don't exist, I don't exist, I don't exist, I don't exist
Esus                                  E
I don't exist, I don't exist, I don't exist, I don't exist

[Chorus]

         Bb
And now that we got that straight
Bb7
Doesn't mean that I can fly
              Eb                                    D
Doesn't mean that I can go do whatever I want
Bb
Now that we got that clear
        Bb7
And you know that I'm not here
              Eb                                    D
Doesn't mean that I can go do whatever I please

[Verse]

Esus
The premature ejaculation of his death sentence
                                            E
Hit Daniel in the face like a big round spitball
          G
And everything got hazy in the courtroom
                                                                     Bm
And then he stood up and then he sat back down another two times in a row
         Esus
And everything got real slow like a gunshot in the movies
        E
And he remembered heroin boy walking through the door
                                                  G
Bouncing off the walls and the floor, taking off his belt, taking off his pants, filling up the bathtub

Getting ready to go in for a swim, singing
Esus                                  E
I don't exist, I don't exist, I don't exist, I don't exist
Esus                                  E
I don't exist, I don't exist, I don't exist, I don't exist, I don't exist, I don't exist

[Chorus]

       Bb
And now that we got that straight
Bb7
Doesn't mean that I can fly
              Eb                                   D
Doesn't mean that I can go do whatever I want
Bb
Now that we got that clear
         Bb7
And you know that I'm not here
              Eb                                    D
Doesn't mean that I can go do whatever I please

[Bridge]

G
And he start remembering and remembering and remembering and remembering and remembering

        G                   Gmaj7
The heroin boy'd walk through the door
                        Em
And he was screaming and everybody was like
                                                                           D
What're you screaming as if it's the end of the world
                                      G
And he was like, well, it is

G                                              Gmaj7
I was sitting in the corner with my pants down
                  Em
And I was sure someone next door was blowing up balloons
                       D             G
And they was red and orange

                              G                                                  Gmaj7
And there was this one lady at the bar and she was trying to buy gin
               Em                                                               D
And this other lady at the bar and she was trying to sell gin
             G
And it worked out good for the boths of them

        G                             Gmaj7
And heroin boy started taking off his belt
              Em
Started taking off his pants, started taking off his shoes
                       D               G
Filling up the bathtub, getting ready to go in for a swim

           Bm     G
I says, no
                           Bm        G
You're going to drown
                     Bm        G
And he says, no
             Bm
I can't drown
G             Bm
Simply because, shhhh

     B
A man destined to hang can never drown
     D#m
A man destined to hang can never drown
     G#m                                                     C#m
A man destined to hang can never ever drown

    C#m
A man destined to drown can never burn
    G#m
A man destined to drown can never burn
    A#m                                                       D#
A man destined to drown can never ever burn

D#7
A man destined to fry can never, ever, ever
G#m
A man destined to fry can never, ever, ever
   C#m
A man destined to fry can never, ever, ever die
                                      B
In any other way than frying
                             Bmaj7       B7                         B
I'm lucky that I'm dying by hanging and not drowning

[Outro]

     Bb
So now that we got that straight
Bb7
Can't I just be left alone?
    Eb                                 D
I want to take a fucking bath
