Verse 1
[Em] There is whisky in the w[D]ater[Am] and there is death upon the vine
[Em] There is fear in the eyes of your f[D]ather
[Em] There is a desert veiled in p[D]avement[Am] and there's a city of seven hills
Chorus
[C] [G/B] [Dadd4(9)] [Em]
How could something so fair be so cruel
When th[C]is black [G/B]sun rev[D]olved around [Em]you
Interlude Em |D |Am | ||
Verse 2
[Em] There is an answer in a qu[D]estion[Am] and there is hope within despair
Em D Am Em
And there is beauty in a failure and there are depths beyond compare
[Em] There is a role of a l[D]ifetime[Am] and there's a song yet to be sung
Em D Am Em
And there's a dumpster in the driveway of all the plans that came undone
Chorus
How c[C]ould somet[G/B]hing so f[D]air be so c[Em]ruel
When th[C]is black [G/B]sun rev[D]olved around y[Em]ou
