[1st Verse]
                 Gm
We talked about making it
           F
I'm sorry that you never made it
         Eb                        Cm
And it pains me to hear you have to say it
                         Gm
You knew the game and played it
                          F
It kills me to know that you have been defeated
   Eb                                   Cm
I see the wires pulling while you're breathing
                     Gm                         F
You knew you had a reason it killed you like diseases
                Eb                                Cm
I could hear it in your voice while you're speaking
                     Gm                        F
He can't be treated, Mr.-Know-It-All had his reign and his fall
    Eb                                     Cm
At least that is what his brain is telling all
 
 
[Chorus]
                              Gm    F
If he said, help me kill the president
                  Eb   Cm
I'd say he needs medicine,
                  Gm      F
Sick of screaming let us in
                   Eb
The wires got the best of him,
     Cm
and all that he invested in,
  Gm              F                  Eb    Cm
goes Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (oh oh oh woah oh oh)
  Gm         F                Eb      Cm
Straight to hell, straight to hell
 
 
[2nd Verse]
                      Gm
He told me, I should take it in
             F
Listen to every word he's speaking
      Bb
The wires getting older
       Cm
I can hear the way they're creaking
            Gm
As their holding him
         F
I could see it in his jaw
      Bb                       Cm
that all he ever wanted was a job
                   Gm
He tells me to be raw
           F
admits to every little flaw
       Bb                     Cm
that never let him sit at the top,
                  Gm
Don't tell me to stop
                     F
Thinks that I should be a little cautious,
Bb                          Cm
I can tell the wires were pulled
 
 
[Chorus]
                              Gm    F
If he said, help me kill the president
                  Bb   Cm
I'd say he needs medicine,
                  Gm      F
Sick of screaming let us in
                   Bb
The wires got the best of him,
     Cm
and all that he invested in,
  Gm              F                  Bb    Cm
goes Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (oh oh oh woah oh oh)
  Gm         F                Bb       Cm
Straight to hell, straight to hell
 
 
[Bridge]
                               Gm
I've been having trouble in believing
                 F
I just started seeing,
                Bb
light at the beginning of the tunnel
         Cm
But he tells me that I'm dreaming,
         Gm
When he talks I hear his ghosts
       F
Every word they say to me,
        Bb                        Cm
I just pray the wires aren't coming
 
 
[Chorus]
                              Gm    F
If he said, help me kill the president
                  Bb   Cm
I'd say he needs medicine,
                  Gm      F
Sick of screaming let us in
                   Bb
The wires got the best of him,
     Cm
and all that he invested in,
  Gm              F                  Bb    Cm
goes Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (oh oh oh woah oh oh)
  Gm         F                Bb       Cm
Straight to hell, straight to hell
 
  Gm              F                  Bb    Cm
     Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (oh oh oh woah oh oh)
  Gm         F                Bb       Cm
Straight to hell, straight to hell
