I never thought I'd die alone,
I laugh the loudest who'd have known?
I traced the cord back to the wall,
No wonder it was never plugged in at all,
I took my time, I hurried up,
The choice was mine I didn't think enough,
I'm too depressed to go on,
You'll be sorry when I'm gone,

Bridge(Clean) Repeat 2 Times

I never conquered, rarely came,
16 just held such better days,
Days when I still felt alive,
We couldn't wait to get outside,

Play Chorus Same As Pre-Chorus Except with Heavy Distortion

The world was wide, too late to try,
The tour was over, we'd survived,
I couldn't wait till I got home,
To pass the time in my room alone,

Go back to intro and on from there. 
Replace the first verse with the second.
After playing the whole thing a second time there is a solo
Note: I wasn't able to figure out how to play the guitar on the solo.

Then play the chorus then end on what
I think is
1|---
2|---
3|-5-
4|-5-
5|-3-
6|---

Additional Lyrics
I never thought, I'd die alone,
Another six months I'll be unknown,
Give all my things to all my friends,
You'll never step foot in my room again,
You'll close it off, board it up,
Remember the time that I spilled the cup,
Of apple juice in the hall,
Please tell mom this is not her fault,

Final Chorus:
I never conquered, rarely came,
But tommorrow holds such better days,
Days when I can still feel alive,
When I can't wait to get outside,
The world is wide, the time goes by,
The tour is over, I've survived,
I can't wait till I get home,
To pass the time in my room alone.
