1st VERSE

C B

going to your funeral and feeling i could scream

Bb Am

everything goes away

C B

driving down the highway through the perfect sunny dream

Bb Am

a perfect day for perfect pain

CHORUS

C G Bb F

look at all the people with the flowers in their hands,

C G Bb F

they put the flower on the box that's holding all the sand that was...

C G

that was once...

Bb F C G Bb

that was once youuuuuuuuuu

C B Bb Am (with the 2nd guitar)

2nd VERSE

Honolulu hurricane i knew that you were not insane,

living in the insane world

(enter the 1st guitar)

smiling like it's no big deal scabby wounds that never heal

the woman was only a girl

CHORUS

look at all the people with their heads down in their hands

when everything I'm feeling makes it hard to understand that, uh

what i need to miss it's...

what i need to miss is you

C B Bb Am (with the 2nd guitar)

3rd VERSE (distorted guitar playing like the vocal + thunder sound)

Going to your funeral and feeling like a fool

no ones gonna take the blame,

thinking bout the days of hanging out behind the school

everything goes away.
