| (capo 1st fret) C Imagine if I died right here, right now G Before I could get to the ending of this song Dm G My guitar would drop right down Dm G My head would hit the ground Dm7 G C You’d think it’s all a joke, but you’d be wrong You’d shake my shoulders and you’d shout my name Because I won’t have moved for quite some time You’d ask around the place “Does anyone know first aid?” You’d panic and you’d dial 999 C7 F For fifteen gruelling minutes, around the room you’d pace D7 G Quite haunted by the stare from my lifeless face | Eventually the ambulance would come “He’s that one on the floor there,” you would say They’d sadly shake their heads Pronounce that I was dead Then carefully they would take my corpse away The journey to the mortuary would take so very long You still can’t believe the irony that I was singing this song. (capo up a fret) You’d have to call my parents on my phone You’d scroll down to the number stored as “mum” She won’t have answered yet But still you start to sweat ‘Cos you’re absolutely dreading what’s to come At first the task before you is easier than it seems But after fifteen seconds come the piercing screams (solo) C F G C G (x2) Well, fortunately this is just a song I haven’t died so far, that much is true But just to let you know I’m softening the blow ‘Cos one day I will die, and so will you! |
