Intro: Play E at standard 16ths until he starts singing, listen to song for the
strumming pattern, really simple and constant throughout the song.
Downright hopelessness
When the wrath of consequence comes
Knocking on that old front door
And we count the ways
the seconds that fall into place with
the emptiness don’t hold the phone
I know some are counting on
God above or methadone
to kill the wake and take away the pain
I feel for the lost and empathize the cost
A A (let ring)
For calamity from what I’ve seen
Open up and wail Open up and cry
We are not the type and far young to die
In a rattled cage heads against the wall
Through dangerous nights
A2 B2 A2, Ab, F#
No more lullabies, open up and wail
We’ve got what it takes
Everything that needs to make a fighting chance
At carrying the load of falling day to day
A gruesome cold reality square in the nose
A (let ring)
Bleeding to the toes
Open up and wail Open up and cry
We are not the type and far young to die
In a rattled cage heads against the wall
Through dangerous nights
No more lullabies
Open up and wail Open up and cry
We are not the type and far young to die
In a rattled cage heads against the wall
Through dangerous nights
A2 B2 (slowing tempo)
No more lullabies, open up and wail
E (let ring)
Open up and wail
Thanks...
