Bridge

C                        G
Look at this mess all around me
Em                           Am
You should have left how you found me
C              G
Death is easy, life is hard
  D                       D
I hate how this ending is sounding
C                       G
You left your cigarette burning
   Em                       Am
On top of the pictures, you hurt me
C              G
Death is easy, life is hard
