Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Am][Em][Em]
[G][G][D][D]
[F][F][F][F]
[Am]Call, [Em]call[G], call[D][F]

[Verse 1]
[Am]What's my problem?
Well, I want you to follow
me down [Em]to the bottom
Underneath the insane asylum
[G]Keep your wits about you while you got 'em
'Cause your wits are [D]first to go
while you're problem-solving
And my [F]problem?
We glorify those, even more, when they
[Am]My opinion
Our culture can treat a loss like [Em]it's a win
and right before we turn on them
We [G]give them the highest of praise,
and hang their banner [D]from a ceiling
Communicating, further en[F]graving
An earlier grave is an optional way

[Chorus 1]
No
[Am]Neon gravestones try to call
[Em](Neon gravestones try to call)
[G]Neon gravestones try to [D]call for my bones
[F]Call (for my bones)
Call, call, [Am]call (call, [Em]call)
[G]Call, [D](call,) [F]call, (call)

[Verse 2]
[Am]What's my problem?
Don't get it twisted
It's with the [Em]people we praise
who may have assisted
I could [G]use the streams
and extra conversations I could [D]give up,
and boost up my reputation
I could [F]go out with a bang
They would know my name
They would host and post a celebration
[Am]My opinion will not be lenient
[Em]My opinion, it's real convenient
Our [G]words are loud,
but now I'm talking action
We don't [D]get enough love?
Well, they get a fraction
They say, [F]"How could he go
if he's got everything?"
I'll [F]mourn for a kid, but won't cry for a king

[Chorus 2]
[Am]Neon gravestones try to call
[Em](Neon gravestones try to call)
[G]Neon gravestones try to [D]call for my bones
[F]Call, (for my bones) call, call

[Bridge 1]
[G]Promise me this (call)
If I [Am]lose to myself
You [Dm]won't mourn a day
And you'll [C]move onto someone else
[G]Promise me this
If I [Am]lose to myself
You [Dm]won't mourn a day
And you'll [C]move onto someone else
[G][G][Am][Am]
[Dm][Dm][C][C]
[G][G][Am][Am]
[Dm][Dm][C][C]

[Chorus 3]
[G]Neon gravestones try to call
[Am](Neon gravestones try to call)
[Dm]Neon gravestones try to [C]call for my bones
[G]Neon gravestones try to call
[Am](Neon gravestones try to call)
[Dm]Neon gravestones try to [C]call for my bones

[Bridge 2]
But they [G]won't get them
No, they [Am]won't get them
They [Dm]won't get them
But they [C]won't get them

[Verse 3]
[G]Don't get me wrong
The rise in awareness
Is [Am]beating a stigma
that no longer scares us
But for [Dm]sake of discussion
In spirit of fairness
Could we [C]give this some room
for a new point of view?
And, [G]could it be true
that some could be tempted
To [Am]use this mistake
as a form of aggression?
A [Dm]form of succession?
A form of a weapon?
Thinking [C]"I'll teach them"
Well, I'm refusing the lesson
It [G]won't resonate in our minds
I'm [Am]not disrespecting what was left behind
Just [Dm]pleading that "it" does not get glorified
Maybe we [C]swap out what it is
that we hold so high
[G]Find your grandparents or someone of age
[Am]Pay some respects
for the path that they paved
To [Dm]life, they were dedicated
Now, [C]that should be celebrated
