C#m G#m F#
But who will know my secrets now
B E Em D#m
Oh depart, disarm me with your blade
G#m E G#m E
Let me walk the masses trade in all serenity
B
I suffer, you suffer in kindness
C#m G#m F#
There's a box to sober you up
B E Em D#m
When you're drunk on the memory of me, disease
G#m E G#m E
On a day like today of all days, remember
B
I'm not dead, I just went away
[Chorus]
B
"Besides," she said outside the tent
E
"They are playing out song"
We're bent, we're broke, we're leaning on each other
B
Duffled and drunk and the fumes billowing out
E
And the city seems so distant, so goodnight
Goodnight
[Verse]
C#m G#m F#
Who'll phone the doc when I'm sick?
B E Em D#m
Give in to grins, answer only patient questions
G#m E G#m
I'm sick of answering, that's my sickness
B
Last of the garden gazers
C#m G#m F#
You've been living in the past too long
B E Em D#m
It's unhealthy oh but it's safe child, it's safe
G#m E
These are just fleeting moments
G#m E B
Pick the ones you like and hold on, hold on
[Chorus]
same as first until
E
And the city seems so distant
B
"And besides," she said
E
"We got time left, we're only half dead
B
We're only half dead," so goodnight
