C
G
D
This
Am
song is
C
sung for
G
anyone that's
D
listening
Am
This song is
C
for the
G
broken-spirited
D
man
Am
This song is
C
for
G
anyone left
D
standing
Am
After the
C
strain of a
G
slow sad
D
end (pick D chord)
(5) --3---2---0
It seems everybody wants what someone else has
And there's sorrow enough for all, just go in any bar and ask
With a beer in each hand and a smile in between
All around's a world grown mean
Chorus
Well we've
E
all
C
had
Our
E
ups and
C
downs
It's been
E
mostly
C
down around
E
here
(5) --0--0 H2--2--2 H3--3--3 P2--2--0
Now this
Am
whole damn
C
mess should be
G
becoming quite
D
clear
Looks like we're
G
all looking
G/F#
for
Em
a life worth
D
livin'
That's
Am
why we
C
drink
G
ourselves to
D
sleep
We're
G
all looking
G/F#
for
Em
a life worth
D
livin'
That's
Am
why we
C
pray for our
G
souls to
D
keep
There's nothing left now but broken pieces
Of one man's broken will to care
And in the end before all is said and done
How many others might follow him there
#Same chords as chorus
But midnight is coming round
It's still mostly down around here
Now this whole damn mess is becoming quite clear
Looks like we're all looking for a life worth livin'
That's why we drink ourselves to sleep
We're all looking for a life worth livin'
That's why we pray for our souls to keep
