Theyll Clap When Youre Gone

Dm                            F
I can feel the walls closing in
Dm                             F
And I don't want to talk anymore
Dm                            F
Wish I could quietly slip away
Dm                             F
And leave you here with no void
Dm                                      F
The only reason I stay is to care for you
Dm                                 F
Everything else in me has atrophied
Dm                        F
I am cold and painless now
Dm                              F
I want to live but I feel nothing

[Pre-Chorus]
Gm              Dm
When can I die? When can I go?
Bb                   Dm
When will I be free? When will I know?
Gm              Dm
When can I run? My legs are bound
Bb             Dm
When can I go? When can I go?

[Verse 2]
Dm                                   F
Was born a blackened seed in the wild
Dm                     F
And I never was a child
Dm                               F
I was pulled right out of the sea
Dm                                 F
And the salt, it never left my body
Dm                                       F
Someone opened me up while I was sleeping
Dm                                   F
And filled my body right up with sand
Dm                                 F
I carry a heaviness like a mountain
Dm                    F
It forces me to remain
Dm
Alive and ugly
F
Alive and ugly
Dm
Alive and ugly
F
Alive and ugly

[Pre-Chorus]
Gm              Dm
When can I die? When can I go?
Bb                   Dm
When will I be free? When will I know?
Gm              Dm
When can I run? My legs are bound
Gm                  Dm
Can I leave here, knowing you'll be strong without me?

[Chorus]
Gm
They'll clap when you die
Bb
They'll love you when you're dead
Dm
And they'll understand
F
And you'll be forgiven then
Gm
They'll clap when you die
Bb
They'll love you when you're dead
Dm
And they'll understand
F
And you'll be forgiven then
Gm
They'll clap when you die
Bb
They'll love you when you're dead
Dm
And they'll understand
F
And you'll be forgiven then
Gm
They'll clap when you die
Bb
They'll love you when you're dead
Dm
And they'll understand
F
And you'll be forgiven then
