[Verse]
We talked about making it
I'm sorry that you never made it
And it pains me to hear you have to say it
You knew the game and played it
It kills me to know that you have been defeated
I see the wires pulling while you're breathing
You knew you had a reason, it killed you like diseases
I could hear it in your voice while you're speaking... You can't be treated.
Mr.-Know-It-All had his reign, and his fall
At least that is what his brain is telling all
[Chorus]
If he said, help me kill the president
I'd say he needs medicine,
Sick of screaming let us in
The wires got the best of him,
and all that he invested in,
goes Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (woah oh oh)
Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (woah oh oh)
[Verse]
He told me, I should take it in
Listen to every word he’s speaking
The wire’s getting older, I can hear the way they're creaking
As they’re holding him
I could see it in his jaw
That all he ever wanted was a job
He tells me to be raw, admits to every little flaw
That never let him sit up on the top
Thinks that I should be a little cautious
Well, I can tell the wires were pulled
[Chorus]
If he said, help me kill the president
I'd say he needs medicine,
Sick of screaming let us in
The wires got the best of him,
All that he invested in,
goes Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (woah oh oh)
Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (woah oh oh)
[Verse]
I’m having troubles in believing
And I just started seeing
Light at the beginning of the tunnel
But he tells me that I'm dreaming
When he talks I hear his ghosts
Every word they say to me
I just pray
The wires aren’t coming (here to strangle me)
[Chorus]
If he said, help me kill the president
I'd say he needs medicine,
Sick of screaming let us in
The wires got the best of him,
All that he invested in,
goes Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (woah oh oh)
Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (woah oh oh)
Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (woah oh oh)
Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (woah oh oh)

This is wrong. Transpose -2 and it's much more accurate, especially when you follow the picking pattern with the song.
