Life On A Chain
G
I live on a chain
C# C
and you share he same last name,
G
as a joke, I sent a bottle of whiskey,
C# C
as you choked, I knew it made you feel dirty,
D Am
and I was waiting over here for life to begin,
Em
I was looking for the new thing,
C C#
and you were the sunshine heading my front-line,
C G
I was alone, you were just around the corner from me.
