Intro

(riff then)
        

Verse

No more Mister Nice Guy
I love the dead 
I've been thinking about it
Now I understand what he said 

Pre Chorus

Ask me now I
understand the words that Alice said
I kick the rocks beneath me
I squint at the sun 

Chorus

Sad, sad, sad, sad
Why must I be sad?
The rows of dandelions growing all around me
Why must I be sad?       

Verse 2

No one knows these things but me and him
so I'm writing everything down in a spiral notebook
in the hopes that one day other people
will feel as low as this

Pre Chorus

Ask me now I
understand the words that Alice said
I kick the rocks beneath me
I squint at the sun 

Chorus

Sad, sad, sad, sad
Why must I be sad?
The rows of dandelions growing all around me
Why must I be sad?       

Bridge/Verse

No more Mister Nice Guy
I love the dead
I've been thinking about it
Now I understand what he said 

Pre Chorus

Ask me now I
understand the words that Alice said
I kick the rocks beneath me
I squint at the sun 

Chorus

Sad, sad, sad, sad
Why must I be sad?
The rows of dandelions growing all around me
Why must I be sad?       
Why must I be sad?
Why must I be sad?
Why must I be sad?
Why must I be sad?
Why must I be sad?
Why must I be sad?
Why must I be sad?
