Verse:
C F
I never thought I’d die alone
A F
I laughed the loudest who’d have known
C F
I traced the cord back to the wall
A F
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine I didn’t think enough
I’m too depressed to go on
You’ll be sorry when I’m gone

Chorus:
C F
I never conquered, rarely came
A F
16 just held such better days
C F
Days when I still felt alive
A F
We couldn’t wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over We’d survived
I couldn’t wait till I got home
To pass the time in my room alone
Riff 1
Verse:
C F
I never thought I’d die alone
A F
Another six months I’ll be unknown
C F
Give all my things to all my friends
A F
You’ll never step foot in my room again
You’ll close it off, board it up
Remeber the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault
Riff 2
Chorus:
C F
I never conquered, rarely came
A F
16 just held such better days
C F
Days when I still felt alive
A F
We couldn’t wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over We’d survived
I couldn’t wait till I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

Tomorrow holds such better days
C F
Days when I can still feel alive

When I can’t wait to get outside
The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I’ve survived
I can’t wait till I get home
To pass the time in my room alone

Blink 182 (BASS)
Adam's Song
This may be simple like the last tab said but the bridge is way off
you can hear it if you listen plus I saw Mike play it live.
