Capo 3rd fret
Standard (EADGBE)

If you want I'll send you a postcard
To let you know I'm here
I'll be sure to fill it with imagery
And I'll be sure to be sincere
Cause I don't want to be your burden
I don't want you to worry for me
Just know it will better now
It will be better we all will agree
When I don't have to be so many things
When I don't have to be a son
You won't have to waste your empathy
You can do whatever you want
(oo la la la la oo la la...)x3
You can try if you want you can build me a house
But don't cry when I go when you knew that I would
It's out of your hands, I'm trying to leave, let me go
I'll write you one last letter
I'll tie it to a string
I'll hang it from a lantern
For you to find in New Orleans
When you go to meet your Maker
When you go to cut your ties
When you go to drown in the water
That springs eternal life
But don't you know that you are living
You are living inside a lie
When you know it could be better here
It could be better if you'd just try
So mark my words and syntax
When you read my final note
I want you to know the consequence
When you leave this world alone
(oo la la la la oo la la...)
I won't try anymore; I won't build you a house
Won't cry when you leave; I know that your weak
I did all that I could, you know I tried to give you a reason
So you can die if you want you can do what you please
But remember the ones that have to burry the seeds
Just know when you go, you place death upon every life
