[Verse 1]
C#
I started missing the days
G#
Where as soon as I'd wake
G#7
I'd make a cocktail
G#7
I'd spend the time that you took
Giving me dirty looks
C#
With my cocktail
C#7 F#
And just like every love affair
C#
On the fault in my armor shows
C#7 G#7
On a border shop full of hope
C#
And I'd get a little green
C#7 F#
I could be dancing on one leg
C#
And enjoying the masquerade
C#7 G#7
Well I'm not making any lemonade
C#
But I got lemons if you need
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
C#
In my meandering way
G# G#7
I'd sing a serenade and sip a cocktail
G#7
My very own world view I'd tell the people I knew
C#
Through a cocktail
C#7 F#
Who can you turn to
C#
When the world is bleeding you dry
C#7 G#7
May I now turn you loose
C#
And watch you wither in the day light?
C#7 F#
Sometimes I feel like a corpse
C#
With a lifetime subscription
C#7 G#7
Just a strange proposition
C#
Oh, the thankless sacrifice

[Verse 3]
C#7 F#
Now how is every day the same
C#
In a variety of places
C#7 G#7
All the damn and empty spaces
C#
In the middle of a crowd
C#7 F#
I could be slipping off the wing of a dove
C#
Or tied up onto the train tracks
C#7 G#7
But either way I ain't coming back
C#
The only way out is down
G#7
Yeah, the only way out, my friend
C# F# C# F# C# G#7 C# C#7 C#6 C#
