The Art of Suicide Chords & Lyrics by Emilie Autumn
The Art of Suicide
guitar chords lyrics
You don't get many Emilie Autumn tabs or chords, so I thought I'd upload an easy one. A
of this has been worked out by myself, as the chords from the Emilie Autumn forum,
brilliant.
This sounds good at standard tuning, or with the capo at the 2nd.
Intro: C, Am, C, Am, F, G.
Verse chords.
C Am C
The art of suicide
Am F
Nightgowns and hair
G
Curls flying every which where
C Am C
The pain too pure to hide
Am F
Bridges of Sighs
G
Meant to conceal lover's lies
Bridge Chords.
F Am
Under the arches
F Am
Of moonlight and sky
F Am
Suddenly easy
F Am
To contemplate why
Am Em
Why...
Chorus Chords.
F Am
Why live a life
F
That's painted with pity
C
And sadness and strife
F Am
Why dream a dream
F
That's tainted with trouble
C
And less than it seems
F Am
Why bother bothering
F
Just for a poem
C
Or another sad song to sing
Am
Why live a life
G
Why live a life
Verse 2.
The art of suicide
Pretty and clean
Conveys a theatrical scene
"Alas, I'm gone!" she cried
Ankles displayed
Melodramatically laid
Bridge.
Under the arches
Of moonlight and sky
Suddenly easy
To contemplate why
Why...
Chorus.
Why live a life
That's painted with pity
And sadness and strife
Why dream a dream
That's tainted with trouble
And less than it seems
Why bother bothering
Just for a poem
Or another sad song to sing
Why live a life
Why live a life
F Am
Life is not like Gloomy Sunday
F
With a second ending
Am C
When the people are disturbed
F
Well they should be disturbed
Am F
Because there's a story
Am C
That ought to be heard
F Am
Life is not like Gloomy Sunday
F
With a second ending
Am C
When the people are disturbed
F
Well they should be disturbed
Am F
Because there's a lesson
Am C
That really ought to be learned
F Am
The world is full of poets
C
We don't need any more
F Am
The world is full of singers
C
We don't need any more
F Am
The world is full of lovers
C
We don't need any more...
F Am & C X2 to end.
