[Verse 1]
A#
I started missing the days
F
Where as soon as I'd wake
F7
I'd make a cocktail
F7
I'd spend the time that you took
Giving me dirty looks
A#
With my cocktail
A#7 D#
And just like every love affair
A#
On the fault in my armor shows
A#7 F7
On a border shop full of hope
A#
And I'd get a little green
A#7 D#
I could be dancing on one leg
A#
And enjoying the masquerade
A#7 F7
Well I'm not making any lemonade
A#
But I got lemons if you need
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
A#
In my meandering way
F F7
I'd sing a serenade and sip a cocktail
F7
My very own world view I'd tell the people I knew
A#
Through a cocktail
A#7 D#
Who can you turn to
A#
When the world is bleeding you dry
A#7 F7
May I now turn you loose
A#
And watch you wither in the day light?
A#7 D#
Sometimes I feel like a corpse
A#
With a lifetime subscription
A#7 F7
Just a strange proposition
A#
Oh, the thankless sacrifice

[Verse 3]
A#7 D#
Now how is every day the same
A#
In a variety of places
A#7 F7
All the damn and empty spaces
A#
In the middle of a crowd
A#7 D#
I could be slipping off the wing of a dove
A#
Or tied up onto the train tracks
A#7 F7
But either way I ain't coming back
A#
The only way out is down
F7
Yeah, the only way out, my friend
