Everybody's high on consolation
|
|
Everybody's trying to tell me what is right for me
|
|
My daddy tried to bore me with a sermon
|
|
But it's plain to see that they can't comfort me
|
|
Sorry, Charlie, for the imposition
|
|
I think I've got it, got it -- I've got the strength to carry on, ohh yeah
|
|
I need a drink and a quick decision
|
|
Now it's up to me, ooh what will be
|
|
|
|
CHORUS:
|
|
She's Gone, She's Gone
|
|
Oh I, Oh I'd --
|
|
I'd better learn how to face it
|
|
She's Gone, She's Gone
|
|
Oh I, Oh I'd --
|
|
I'd pay the devil to replace her
|
|
She's Gone, She's Gone
|
|
Oh I -- what went wrong?
|
|
|
|
Up in the morning, look in the mirror
|
|
I'm worn as her toothbrush hanging in the stand
|
|
My face ain't looking any younger
|
|
Now I can see love's taken her toll on me
|
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
|
Think I'll spend eternity in the city
|
|
Let the carbon and monoxide choke my thoughts away
|
|
The pretty bodies help dissolve the memories
|
|
But they could never be what she was to me
|
|
|
[CHORUS 2x, plus ad lib fade]
|

She's Gone
