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

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

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