The Art Of Suicide by Emilie Autumn
The Art Of Suicide
Intro:
C Am Em Dm G7 (x 2)
C Am
The art of suicide
Em
Nightgowns and hair
Dm G7
Curls flying every which where
C Am
The pain too pure to hide
Em
Bridges of Sighs
Dm G7
Meant to conceal lover's lies
Em Am
Under the arches
Em
Of moonlight and sky
Am
Suddenly easy
Em
To contemplate why
E7
Why...
Chorus:
Am Dm
Why live a life
G C
That's painted with pity
E7 Am
And sadness and strife
Dm
Why dream a dream
G C
That's tainted with trouble
E7 Am
And less than it seems
Dm
Why bother bothering
G C
Just for a poem
E7 Am
Or another sad song to sing
Dm
Why live a life
G
Why live a life
C Am Em Dm G7
C Am
The art of suicide
Em
Pretty and clean
Dm G7
Conveys a theatrical scene
C Am
"Alas, I'm gone!" she cried
Em
Ankles displayed
Dm G7
Melodramatically laid
Em Am
Under the arches
Em
Of moonlight and sky
Am
Suddenly easy
Em
To contemplate why
E7
Why...
Chorus:
Am Dm
Why live a life
G C
That's painted with pity
E7 Am
And sadness and strife
Dm
Why dream a dream
G C
That's tainted with trouble
E7 Am
And less than it seems
Dm
Why bother bothering
G C
Just for a poem
E7 Am
Or another sad song to sing
Dm
Why live a life
G
Why live a life
Em Am (x 7) Em E7
Chorus:
Dm
Why live a life
G C
That's painted with pity
E7 Am
And sadness and strife
Dm
Why dream a dream
G C
That's tainted with trouble
E7 Am
And less than it seems
Dm
Why bother bothering
G C
Just for a poem
E7 Am
Or another sad song to sing
Dm
Why live a life
G C E7
Why live a life
Am Dm
Why live a life
G
Why live a life
C Am Em Dm G7 (x 2)
C Am Em
Life is not like Gloomy Sunday
Dm
With a second ending
G7 C
When the people are disturbed
Am
Well they should be disturbed
Em Dm
Because there's a story
G7 C
That ought to be heard
Am Em
Life is not like Gloomy Sunday
Dm
With a second ending
G7 C
When the people are disturbed
Am
Well they should be disturbed
Em Dm
Because there's a lesson
G7 C Am Em Dm G7
That really ought to be learned
C Am
The world is full of poets
Em Dm G7
We don't need any more
C Am
The world is full of singers
Em Dm G7
We don't need any more
C Am
The world is full of lovers
Em Dm G7 C Am Em Dm G7
We don't need any more...
C Am Em Dm G7 C

This sounds good at standard tuning, or with the capo at the 2nd.
The F chord is like this:
1st finger, B1.
2nd finger, G2.
3rd ginger, D3.
Sorry, I don't know the name for it! D: F major maybe?
