Verse
C#m B C#m
Folks you'd think I'd be happy and delighted
C#m B C#m
Cause all my dreams are finally coming true
C#m B C#m
But did I mention all my dreams are nightmares

In my head I feel a storm about to brew
[Verse 2]
C#m B C#m
The clouds are hovering a mean blue and purple
C#m B C#m
No sunshine in my life anymore
C#m B C#m
The spirits are creepin' 'round every corner
C#m B C#m B
I'm petrified but I'm unlockin' my door
[Chorus]

Dear mother goodbye (dear mother goodbye)

These are the only words I say before I die
[Verse 3]
C#m B
I want an old man priest
C#m B
And a stormy day
C#m B
But don't waste money on a casket
C#m B
I don't deserve a grave
C#m B
Just cut out my organs
C#m B
Give 'em to the barely livin'
C#m B
Turn my body into ashes
C#m B
And pray my soul's forgiven
[Chorus]
C#m A C#m B
So long cruel world (so long cruel world)
C#m A C#m B
Dear mother goodbye (dear mother goodbye)
F#
Time is come to pay for what I've done

So goodbye
C#m B
Goodbye
[Verse 4]
C#m B C#m
I hear the cracklin' of the thunder
C#m B C#m
And though my name's not on the list
C#m B C#m
I'll sport a sharkskin and a splash of aqua velva
C#m B C#m B
I'll do a dance of death, give me that kiss
[Outro]
C#m A C#m B
So long cruel world (so long cruel world)
C#m A C#m B
Dear mother don't cry (dear mother don't cry)

Whoa oh oh oh oh
C#m A C#m B
Yadda yadda yadda ah

So long cruel world (so long cruel world)
C#m A C#m B
Dear mother goodbye (dear mother goodbye)
