[Verse 1]
A F#m D A
Happy Birthday Black song to my cancerous blood
A A E E
Will you please feed me my tube
A F#m D A
So many oceans to swim but I lost my will to swim
A E A A
Hope is big, but they're always gonna win
A F#m D A
Now I felt a cool breeze on my invalid knees
A A E E
It reminded me of our kiss in the summer
A F#m D A
Vicarious like my grandmothers kiss at Christmas
A E A A
Hope is big, but they're always gonna win
[Chorus]
F#m D A E
Hope is big, ho-o-ope, it's so big
F#m D A E
Hope is big, ho-o-ope, it's so big
A E A
Yeah, they're always gonna win

[Verse 2]
A F#m D A
And all the ashes were red, the fire trucks lost in it
A A E E
Tombstone flickered on the Fourth of July
A F#m D A
Janitor keys jingle jangle the loneliest tune
A E A A
Hope is big but we're always gonna lose
A F#m D A
Now you're up and you're out of your impervious doubt
A A E E
And your love, it won't bring us the truth
A F#m D A
And I hear rats in moonlight tangled up in our fight
A E A A
Hope is big but they're always gonna win
[Chorus]
F#m D A E
Hope is big, ho-o-ope, it's so big
F#m D A E
Hope is big, ho-o-ope, it's so big
A E A
Yeah they're always gonna win
