[Verse]
G                        C/G            G
Born to die, born to die Darling you'll live
                    D/F#
No longer than your years
   C/G        G         D/F#        G
If Heaven and Earth are both on the market,
     C/G     Dsus       G
Then hell is nothing to fear.

[Chorus]
   C/G                     G
So where oh where have the lights gone love
        Em  G               D/F#
Has the sun retired for the day
       C/G     Em          G       C/G
Or has life outlived these eyes of mine
       C/G            Dsus       G
Please stay until the last light fades.

[Verse]
G                           C/G         G
Father oh my father I'll be standing in line
                        D/F#
To face what faults are mine
     C/G           Bm              Am         G
It's not these old bones that I'll miss in my dying
         C/G      Dsus    G
It's the girl I'm leaving behind.

[Chorus]
   C/G                     G
So where oh where have the lights gone love
        Em  G               D/F#
Has the sun retired for the day
       C/G     Em          G       C/G
Or has life outlived these eyes of mine
       C/G            Dsus       G
Please stay until the last light fades.

Love of mine sweet love of mine I'll soon return

To the land to make room for the new

I'll give hell my worst and good to this earth
