Heroin

Lucy Wainwright Roche

key: C Tuning: E A D G B E
C
Sometimes you see your favourite shot
Am
It's one you wanted but you never got
C
It was of me
             Am
But not me

C
I've been busy counting days
Am
Seasons stack up but the well remains
C
And that's about you
              Am
But not you

[Chorus]

F                      C
And some things that I want to say
       G
Aren't survivable
    Am
Or advisable
F
Like, "Happy Birthday heroin
    C          G
But God, how I loved you
           Am
And how I still do."

[Verse]

C
I could have roamed with you another round
Am
Thousands of feet above the ocean's ground
C
After the dark and eastern sun
Am
Another one

C
Would it have been more of the very same?
Am
Hugging hairpin turns from the outside lane?
C
Some beauty's views are never done
         Am
The West is won

[Chorus]

F                         C
And some drives I've been due to take
       G
Aren't advisable
   Am
Or survivable
F                                    C
It's the million dollar highway on a snowy day
           G
It's how I had to leave
           Am
It's how I longed to stay

F                      C
And some things that I want to say
       G
Aren't survivable
   Am
Or advisable
F
Like, "Happy Birthday heroin
C               G
But God, how I loved you
          Am
And how I still do."
