A5          G5
Here I sit at the fire
F5                      C5        E5
Liquor's bitter flames warm my languid soul
A5                G5
Here I drink alone and remember
F5                      C5        E5
A graven life, the stain of her memory
A5          G5
In this cup, love's poison
F5                      C5        E5
For love is the poison of life
A5          G5
Tip the cup, feed the fire,

And forget about useless hope. . .
A5                    G5
Lost in the desolation of love
F5                            C5        E5
The passions we reap and sow

Lost in the desolation of life
F5                      C5       E5
This path that we walk. . .
A5             G5
Here's to love, the sickness

The great martyr of the soul
A5             G5
Here's to life, the vice
F5                            C5        E5
The great herald of misery
A5          G5
In this cup, spiritus frumenti
F5                            C5        E5
For this is the nectar of the spirit
A5               G5
Quench the thirst, drown the sorrow
F5                            C5        E5
And forget about cold yesterdays. . .
