[Verse 1]
B
I started missing the days
F#
Where as soon as I'd wake
F#7
I'd make a cocktail
F#7
I'd spend the time that you took
Giving me dirty looks
B
With my cocktail
B7 E
And just like every love affair
B
On the fault in my armor shows
B7 F#7
On a border shop full of hope
B
And I'd get a little green
B7 E
I could be dancing on one leg
B
And enjoying the masquerade
B7 F#7
Well I'm not making any lemonade
B
But I got lemons if you need
[Instrumental]
B Bmaj7 B6 F# E B
[Verse 2]
B
In my meandering way
F# F#7
I'd sing a serenade and sip a cocktail
F#7
My very own world view I'd tell the people I knew
B
Through a cocktail
B7 E
Who can you turn to
B
When the world is bleeding you dry
B7 F#7
May I now turn you loose
B
And watch you wither in the day light?
B7 E
Sometimes I feel like a corpse
B
With a lifetime subscription
B7 F#7
Just a strange proposition
B
Oh, the thankless sacrifice
[Piano solo]

[Verse 3]
B7 E
Now how is every day the same
B
In a variety of places
B7 F#7
All the damn and empty spaces
B
In the middle of a crowd
B7 E
I could be slipping off the wing of a dove
B
Or tied up onto the train tracks
B7 F#7
But either way I ain't coming back
B
The only way out is down
F#7
Yeah, the only way out, my friend
