THE HELL OF IT (Paul Williams) -From the 'Phantom of the Paradise' soundtrack. E Roll on thunder, shine on lightning Am The days are long and the nights are frightenin' C Nothing matters anyway, G D Am And that's the hell of it. E Winter comes and the winds blew colder Am While some grew wiser, you just grew older C And you never listened anyway, G D Am And that's the hell of it. G Good for nothing, bad in bed G Nobody likes you and you're better off dead C E C Goodbye (Goodbye!), we've all come to say goodbye (Goodbye!), E Goodbye (Goodbye!). G Born defeated, died in vain G Super-destructive, you were hooked on pain C E Though your music lingers on C E All of us are glad you're gone Bm C G If I could live my life half as worthlessly as you Bm C E D Am I'm convinced that I'd wind up burning too. E Love yourself as you loved no other Am Be no man's fool and be no man's brother C G We're all born to die alone, you know, that's the hell of it. E Life's a game where they're bound to beat you Am And time's a trick it can turn to cheat you C And we only waste it anyway, G And that's the hell of it. G Good for nothing, bad in bed G Nobody likes you and you're better off dead C E C Goodbye (Goodbye!), we've all come to say goodbye (Goodbye!), E Goodbye (Goodbye!). G Born defeated, died in vain G Super-destructive, you were hooked on pain C E Though your music lingers on C E All of us are glad you're gone Bm C G If I could live my life half as worthlessly as you Bm C E I'm convinced that I'd wind up burning too. ------------------------------------------------------------------- I think it was a shame that this song wasn't yet in UG, so, though I'm an awful guitar player (and, as you can see, an awful english speaker as well), I tried to get the chords... And, well, here it is, my first tab. Don't be rough, I'M A BABY! As you'll see, it's easy as hell, so... Enjoy (if you can).
