Intro bit:

A--0-0000-0-0000- B B x2
E--5-5555-5-5555-
C--6-6666-6-6666-
G--6-6666-6-6666-

G   A   D   

D                     A
I hope that our few remaining friends
G                     D
Give up on trying to save us
D                           A
I hope we come out with a fail-safe plot
G                             D
To piss off the dumb few that forgave us

D                   A       
I hope the fences we mended
G                          A
Fall down beneath their own weight
D                             Bm
And I hope we hang on past the last exit
G                       A
I hope it's already too late

D
And I hope the junkyard a few blocks from here
Bm
Someday burns down
G
And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away
G                A                 G           A
And I never come back to this town again in my life

         D
I hope I lie
         Bm
And tell everyone you were a good wife
          D
And I hope you die
          A
I hope we both die

D   D   D   D

A--0-0000-0-0000- B B x2

G   A   D

D    A
I hope I cut myself shaving tomorrow
GD
I hope it bleeds all day long
DA
Our friends say it's darkest before the sun rises
G      D
We're pretty sure they're all wrong

D     A
I hope it stays dark forever
GA
I hope the worst isn't over
D    Bm
And I hope you blink before I do
GA
And I hope I never get sober

D
And I hope when you think of me years down the line
Bm
You can't find one good thing to say
G
And I'd hope that if I found the strength to walk out
G      A
You'd stay the hell out of my way

G
I am drowning
    A
There is no sign of land
    D
You are coming down with me
Bm
Hand in unlovable hand

D
And I hope you die
A
I hope we both die

D   D   D   D

    LOVE this. A favourite song and this version is great-- there was a version I was trying to learn, but it was written for guitar and was much too hard for uke! Thanks for posting!
