[Verse 1]
A#m E* C#
I saw the fire
A#m E* C#
I heard them say
A#m E* C#
They would go on dancing there
G#
'til the breaking of the day
F#
Losers and lovers
F7 A#m
Looking for a reason to be glad
A#m A#m A#* Em C# A#m A#m A#* Em C#

[Verse 2]
A#m E* C#
Down inside the forest
A#m E* C#
I stumbled on a crowd
A#m E* C# G#
Caravans with purple wheels and the people shouting loud
F#
Losers and lovers
F A#m
Forgetting that the world is going mad
A#m A#m A#* Em C# A#m A#m A#* Em C#

[Chorus 1]
C# A#m
Thought it was over
C# A#m
Laid myself to rest
C# A#m F7
Underneath the warm September sky
F F7
They're reminiscing
F F7
When all the years ignore me
F F7 A#m
The losers and the lovers passing by
A#m A#m A#* Em C# A#m A#m A#* Em C#
| / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / |
[Chorus 2]
A#m E* C#
Pulled down the branches
A#m E* C#
To make myself a bed
A#m F7
Then if it should rain, then I'll be dry
F F7
I've got my visions
F F7
So let them all ignore me
F F7 A#m
The losers and the lovers passing by

[Verse 3]
A#m E*
My mind, it was heavy
A#m E*
My feelings, they are dim
A#m G#
I began to doubt if they were there or had they been?
F#
There are no more caravans
F A#m
And I am here alone with aching bones
A#m A#m A#* Em C# A#m A#m A#* Em C#
| / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / |
[Chorus 1]
C# A#m
Thought it was over
C# A#m
Laid myself to rest
C# A#m F7
Underneath the warm September sky
F F7
They're reminiscing
F F7
When all the years ignore me
F F7 A#m
The losers and the lovers passing by
