[G]Cause when I'm passed
that sil[C]ver challis
[D]I always drink my [G]fill until it
[Em]Knocks me down [C]and tangles
up my brain
[D]

[Verse 3]
Yeah buddy, it's [G]a short life,
[D]it's a hell of a life

[Interlude 1]
out the flame
[G][D][Em][C][D]

and sleep[C]ing in alleys
[D]Telling myself [G]the same old [D]stories

it holy wine
[D]

[Verse 5]
[G]Looking in win[D]dows
[G]and[C] seeing a stranger
[D]Go ing through hell like
[G]a fallen [D]angel
[Em]Feeling my bones getting [C]old
long before their time
[D]

[Verse 6]
Yeah buddy, it's [G]a short life,

And [G]the firewa[D]ter gotcha
[G]talking in [D]circles again

[Verse 7]
[D]
It's an [G]empty [D]bottle passing around
When [G]your hopes and dreams
have [C]all burned down
And [G]the firewa[Bm]ter [D]is the one
thing to put out the flame
