[Intro]
E E/D# C#  A  B  G#  C#  A  Am
 
 
E E/D# C#
       So I've made up my mind
A          B    C#                    E E/D#
 I will pretend to leave this world behind
           C#
And in the end you'll know I've lied
A             B
To get your attention
      G#          C#  B  A  Am
I'm faking my own suicide
 
      E      E/D#   C#
I'm faking my own suicide
A                  (E)               A         B
Because I know you love me you just haven't realized
     E      E/D#   C#
I'm faking my own suicide
         A             B
They'll hold a double funeral
           G#              C#    B       A   Am
Because a part of you will die along with me
 
 
E E/D# C#
   I wish you thought that I was dead
A              B        C#               E E/D#
So rather than me you'd be depressed instead
            C#
And before arriving at my grave
       A             B
You'd come to the conclusion
       G#                C#
You'd loved me all your days
              A
But it's too late
                     Am
Too late for you to say
 
 
      E      E/D#   C#
I'm faking my own suicide
A                  (E)               A         B
Because I know you love me you just haven't realized
     E      E/D#   C#
I'm faking my own suicide
         A             B
They'll hold a double funeral
           G#              C#    B       A   Am
Because a part of you will die along with me
 
 
E         E/D#   C#
I'll write you a letter that you'll keep
A                   B
Reminding you your love for me
    C#
Is more than six feet deep
E        E/D#
 You say aloud that you
C#
Would've been my wife
     A                B
And right about that time
        G#
Is when I come back to life
            A
And let you know
            Am
I'd let you know
 
 
                 E      E/D#   C#
That all along I was faking my own suicide
A                  (E)                A         B
Because I know you loved me, you just never realized
        E      E/D#   C#
I was faking my own suicide
   A               B              G#          C#
I'll walk in that room, see your eyes open so wide
         A
Open so wide
             Am
Because you know
 
             G#            A              B
Because you know you will never leave my side
           G#         A                 B
Until the day that I die for the first time
           G#                A                 B
And we'll laugh, yeah we'll laugh and we will cry
        G#             A              B
So overjoyed with our love that's so alive
                (E)
Our love is so alive

thats pretty much perfect... except for maybe in the bit where it starts 'Becuase you know you will never leave my side', the second and fourth lines should have a C# instead of a G# i think good effort mate

transpose down 4 steps, capo on 6th fret, chords are much simpler but this works too, good work!
