Sharpest Lives Chords Guitar Tab

The Black Parade [2] Tabs:

The Sharpest Lives

C#
Well it rains and it pours
When you're out on your own

A
If I crash on the couch
Can I sleep in my clothes?

F#
'Cause I've spent the night dancing
I'm drunk, I suppose

G#
If it looks like I'm laughing
I'm really just asking to leave
C#
This alone, you're in time for the show

A
You're the one that I need
I'm the one that you loathe

F#
You can watch me corrode like a beast in repose

G#
'Cause I love all the poison
Away with the boys in the band

C#           D#           G#           C#
I've really been on a bender and it shows

C#            D#             G#                C#
So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?


C#
Give me a shot to remember

A
And you can take all the pain away from me

F#
A kiss and I will surrender

G#
The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead

C#
A light to burn all the empires

A
So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be

F#
In love with all of these vampires

G#
So you can leave like the sane abandoned me


(Same as the first verse)
There's a place in the dark where the animals go
You can take off your skin in the cannibal glow
Juliet loves the beat and the lust it commands
Drop the dagger and lather the blood on your hands, Romeo


I've really been on a bender and it shows
So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?

(Same as first chorus)
Give me a shot to remember
And you can take all the pain away from me
A kiss and I will surrender
The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead
A light to burn all the empires
So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be
In love with all of these vampires
So you can leave like the sane abandoned me
[x2]

No Picture Dylan Rhythm Player	#2 by Dylan Fitzgerald at Oct 1, 2007 at 8:51 AM EST
	This song kind of reminds me of when my ex-bf asked me for one last kiss to remember me by. "A light to burn all the empires So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be In love with all of these vampires So you can leave like the sane abandoned me" Maybe that's just me though :-\ Either way it's amazing and is definitely my favorite song on the entire album

No Picture THE RONANATOR ( Average	#3 by THE RONANATOR (aka.Ronan) downer at Oct 4, 2007 at 3:13 PM EST
	This song is tough to fit in with "The Cancer Patient" alter ego of this concept album. I think it's just about realising what he has to deal with, in this instance cancer, and in awe of what will happen to him.

No Picture jake Professional	#4 by jake burns at Oct 4, 2007 at 11:07 PM EST
	sparkly-pink-fairy is right ,support mcr and they might even tour in the godforsaken music wasteland i live in. so think about it ,if you buy the cd you could be helping a tour starved country to realise its dream and see a decent band instead of the crap that you wouldint go to see if they were in your own backyard!

	I definitely like the above interpretations far better than what I originally thought. That being, this was a cross between the patient being very much delirious due to whatever medicine he was on / a distorted flashback to something that happened to him.

No Picture Cohen Wanna Be	#6 by Cohen B at Oct 6, 2007 at 8:51 AM EST
	This is, to me, a flashback for The Patient, and he's thinking about the first time he'd come face-to-face with death, and it was in the form of someone close, possibly a friend or a lover or something of that sort. For me, songs like this, Mama, Teenagers, Sleep, and to some extent, Disenchanted, show that The Patient is not a character one loves, it's a character one loves to hate. It's hard to figure out which you want to do, feel sympathy for the death of a young man, or the happiness that the monster is dead. But this is all just my opinion. This is such a catchy song. It's really fucking good.

No Picture can Wanna Be	#7 by can sahin at Oct 6, 2007 at 8:37 PM EST
	I adore this song - It's my favourite from the album. I think, in a way, it's about what happened to The Patient in the past. I think it's about being in a love/hate relationship, or being stuck somewhere and having no choice but to stay with someone he, in the past, didn't really get on with.

	i think "I'll be sure to remember" is really "give me a shot to remember"

No Picture Chuck Average	#9 by Chuck Norris at Oct 11, 2007 at 4:26 AM EST
	Favorite on the album here too!

No Picture Jake Average	#10 by Jake Bounds at Oct 12, 2007 at 4:02 AM EST
