G5 
I COULD TELL HE HAD A TOUGH LIFE,  
           F5 
BY THE WAY HE SAT AND STARED 
C5 
AND ME, I'D COME TO PUSH AND SHOVE,  
     G5 
SO I PULLED UP I CHAIR 
 

G5 
WE TALKED OF ROADS UNTRAVELED,  
   G5 
WE TALKED OF LOVE UNTRUE 
   C5 
OF STRINGS THAT COME UNRAVELED,  
              G5 
WE WERE KINGS AND KINDRED FOOLS 
 

    A5  
AND JUST WHEN I HIT BOTTOM,  
     D5 
THAT OLD MAN RAISES HIS GLASS. 
                  A5 
AND SAID AT LEAST WE'VE HAD OUR CHANCES,   
       D5 
THERES THOSE WHO NEVER HAVE 


   C5                      D5            G5            D5      C5 
SO HERES TO ALL THE SOLDIERS, WHO HAVE EVER DIED IN VANE 
    A5                      D5           G5 
THE INSANE LOCKED UP IN THEMSELVES, THE HOMLESS DOWN ON MAIN 
   C5                        D5           G5          D5           C5 
TO THOSE WHO STAND ON EMPTY SHORES, AND SPIT AGAINST THE WIND 
    A5                D5          C5                D5     G5
AND THOSE WHO WAIT FOREVER,  FOR SHIPS THAT DON'T COME IN. 
 
 
G5 
HE SAID ITS ONLY LIFES ILLUSIONS, 
     F5 
THAT BRING US TO THIS BAR 
C5 
TO PICK UP THESE OLD CRUTCHES, 
    G5 
AND COMPARE EACH OTHERS SCARS 
 
 
G5 
CAUSE THE THING WERE CALLING HEARTACHE,  
      F5 
HELL, THERE HARLDLY WORTH OUR TIME  
     C5 
WE'D BITCH ABOUT A DOLLAR, 
     G5 
WHEN THERES THOSE WITHOUT A DIME 
 

      A5 
AS HE ORDERED ONE LAST ROUND HE SAID, 
  D5 
I GUESS WE CAN'T COMPLAIN 
         A5 
GOD MADE LIFE A GAMBLE 
         D5   
AND WERE STILL IN THE GAME
