[Verse 1]
I [Am]used [D]to [G]visit
[F]all the very [G]gay places,
those [F]come what [G]may places,
where [F]one re[G]laxes on [F]the axles
[Cm]of the [G]wheel of life,
[Ebm]To get[G#] the fee[G#dim]l of life[Asus4][Am]
[D]From [G#]chairs [G]and cocktails
[D]The guy[G]s I knew had sad
and sullen grey faces
With distant cake traces
That used to be there,
you can see where
[Cm]they've been washed [Dm]away
[Eb]By t[G#]oo ma[G#dim]ny throug[G]h the day,
[D]twelve [G#]o 'clock tale[G]s
[F#]Then you c[G]ame along
with your [E]siren songs
to tip me [C#]to madness
[Cm]I th[G]ough[F#]t for [Bb]a while [G]that your poignant smi[E]le
[G]was tipped with the [F#]sad ness o[G]f [Am]a great [D]love f[F]or me.
[E]Oh, yes[Bdim], I was w[G]rong again[Am],
[Eb]I wa[G]s wrong[D][G][D]
[G#]
[G]Life is lonely [G#]again,[G]
[G#]an d only last y[G]ear,
everything [F]seemed so [Bb]sure.
[G#]Now [G]life is [Ab]aw ful ag[G]ain,
a [G#]truffle of [G]heart could only
be a [B]bore.[E][G]
[D]Awake in [Am]Paris [F]to [A]eas[D]e the bite o[Bb]f it[Bbm]
[Eb]All [Ab]I care is to[Db] smi[Gb]le and spi[Cb]te of it[G]
I'll [Ab]forget you, I [G]will
While yet [G#]you are [G]still
Burning inside [F]my [Em]brain
[E]Your oil mas[Am]k is mus[Cm]h
Stifling [C#]those who [D]strive
An[G]d I'll live a l[C]ush life
In [F]some small [Bb]di ve
An[E]d t[Am]here I[G]'ll be
[F]While [E]I rot [F]with the [D]rest
Of those [Ebm]whose [Em]lives [Fm]are l[F#m]onely, t[G]oo[G].
