[D] When, when we were young, we had [A] no history, saw nothing [E] to lose, meant [D] we could choose,
choose what we wanted then, without any [A] fear or thought [B] of revenge.
[E] But then [D] you grew old, and I lost [G] my ambition, so I gained [D] an [B] addiction [A] to drink and [E] depression.

[C#]
[D] They are mine, my only [G] true friend, and I keep [A] them with me to the [Em] very end.
[Bm] I [Em] choose not [D] to remember, but I miss your [G] arrogance, and I need your [A]
intelligence,
and your hate [E] for [B] authority.
[Em] But now [D] you're gone, I read it [G] today, they found you [A]
in Spain,
face down [Em] in the street, with a bottle [D] in your hand,
and a [G] wild smile on your face, and [A] a knife in your back.
You died in [E] a foreign land, and they found [D] my letter,
rolled up in [G] your pocket, where I said [A] I'd kill myself,
but you left [Em] me again.
So now [D] she's gone, and you're both [G] in my mind.
I got one thing [A]
to say, before I [B] am drunk again.
[Em] God [D] damn the sun, God [G] damn the sun, God [A] damn anyone,
who says a [B] kind word.
[D] God damn the sun, God [G] damn the sun, God damn [A] the light it shines,
and this world [B] it shows.
[Em]
God [D] damn the sun.
