[Intro 1]
[Em][C][G]
[C][G][C][G][C][G]
He's [C]my friend but he's

[Verse 1]
no friend [G]to me
[C]Ask him why,
he'll tell [G]you casually
Washed [F]up, bitter, broken, busted
[G]Backstabbed everyone he trusted
Says [C]he sees what no one else [F]can see
And if I [G]had half his guts I'd want it
[F]To chase that fatalistic comet
[C]Die young in the dark,
that's [F]po etry
But it was not [Dm]to be,
[G]it was not [F]for[C] me[Dm][C][Dm]

[Verse 2]
He's [C]always sad but I've never
seen [G]him cry
[C]When he comes to, sure he'll apolo[G]gize
[F]Find his car, assess the damage
Still [G]drunk but he likes the challenge
Hold [C]on to his mind just like [F]a kite
But [G]a good strong win can keep you honest
[F]Fill you with some common knowledge
Thing[C]s when we were young
we [F]never tried
Just figured we [Dm]had time
[G]with such a long [C]life[Dm][C]

[Verse 3]
[Dm]Money clip[C]s, alligator shoes[G]
One [C]more dance,
he's in that champagne [G]room
[F]She moves like a chocolate fountain
[G]Pouring, spilling all around him
Makes [C]him wonder what
else she [F]can do
How bitter[G]sweet is love's illusion
Feel[F]ings that cannot be proven
Trust [C]me, you'll see, my [F]aim is true
I've [Dm]done this all for you,
[G]I've suffered long for [C]you[Dm][C][Dm]
So many [C]times he's tried to play it straight

[Verse 4]
[G]
Worked [C]and worked until
his body [G]ached
But a brand [F]new life can lose its lustre
[G]Troubles tend to find each other
Call [C]it luck or you can call it [F]fate
[G]But either way it's how it happens
Not [F]the way that you imagined
So just [C]go out with a bang like
[F]Hemingway
Some will say [Dm]you're brave
[G]Some will say you ain't
