i hurt myself today
to see if i still feel
i focus on the pain
the only thing that's real
the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but i remember everything
what have i become?
my sweetest friend
everyone i know
goes away in the end
you could have it all
my empire of dirt
i will let you down
i will make you hurt
i wear my crown of shit
on my liar's chair
full of broken thoughts
i cannot repair
beneath the stain of time
the feeling disappears
you are someone else
i am still right here
what have i become?
my sweetest friend
everyone i know
goes away in the end
you could have it all
my empire of dirt
i will let you down
i will make you hurt
if i could start again
a million miles away
i would keep myself
i would find a way

Chord list
==========
The list of chords is a bit complicated because there's many variants and
unusual names. Next to the usual fret numbers, I added the note names in string
order, which hopefully makes finding the notes easier. Note that some of the
fingerings need some quite uncomfortable stretching, like Bo12 and Dadd#9, but
they are possible (it's not a typo). The note names are written in Helmholtz
notation.
E A d g b e'
----------------------
A x02220 | A e a d' e'
Aaddb5(no3) x0x240 | A a d#' e'
Asus2 x02200 | A e a b e'
Badd11(no5) x2x440 | B b d#' e'
Bbm x13321 | Bb f bb c#' f'
Bm x24432 | B f# b d' f#'
Bmadd11 x24430 | B f# b d' e'
Bo12 x24x31 | B f# d' f'
Bsus4 x24400 | B f# b b e'
Dadd9 xx0252 | d a e' f#'
Dadd#9 xx0262 | d a f' f#'
D11(no3,no5) xx0020 | d g c#' e'
Dsus2 xx0230 | d a d' e'
E7(no3) xx243x | e b d'
G6 355000 | G d g g b e'
G+6(no3) 3xx040 | G g d#' e'
Notes:
- 'o' in the name 'Bo12' is shorthand for 'dim'. 'Bo12' expanded means "B chord
with a minor Third and diminished Fifth and an added (perfect) Twelfth (= Fifth)".
Another way to write this might be: Bdimadd5.
- 'no3'/'no5' mean that a chord has no Third/Fifth
- '+' is shorthand for 'aug'
- figuring out the chord names was complicated, so I can't guarantee that
they're all right
- see wikipedia's "chord names and symbols (popular music)" for more info

Notes
=====
In the verses, the notes are picked individually in sequence. In the chorus, you
can play the notes simultaneously with three or four fingers until "... And you
can have it all", and from there play the chords in single powerful
down-strokes. The end verse is also played with down-strokes (not returning to
the sequential picking from the other verses).
In the verses, before it switches to Aaddb5(no3), you should probably keep the
ring finger on d' on the B string all the time.
I omitted a d'' (string 1, fret 10) in the verses (see E7(no3)) in the original
that is only playable in a higher position, but it sounds okay to play nothing,
a d' or maybe an f' in its place.
In the chorus, you might want to replace Dadd#9 with Dadd9, which is easier on
the ears and on the hand.
The progression for the ending is a crude approx of the real ending, with
the sudden heavy distorted bass and electric effects and so on. You might try
and hit the strings as hard and ugly as you can to match the spirit. ;)
In the end verse, maybe try hitting the lowest strings more (going for
a power-chord-ish sound, like B5/G5/A5).
The chords at the end at "I would find a way" are all one single stroke. The
"Bbm-Bm" indicates that you strike a Bbm and than slide the fingers one fret to
Bm.
