Intro:
G | C E | (x2)
'Is it [G]raining where you are?'
The only [C]thing I could think to [E]ask
But nothing [G]ever hurt so bad[G]
As the '[C]no' that you said [E]back
But ain't that the t[C/B]ruth, man[A]?
Those are [C]just fact[G]s
The farther you [C/B]go from where you [A]start
The harder it [C]is to get bac[G]k
Chorus:
Love of [C]my lif[D]e
Gone [G5]forever[E5]
Love of [C]my lif[D]e
Gone for [G]good
[G]This is for all my friends in West Virginia
Riff:
G C E C (x4)
The [G]good stuff [C]comes, the [E]good stuff [C]goes
The [G]good stuff [C]seems so ha[E]rd to ho[C]ld
Hope[G] it slides s[C]lowly [E]down your [C]throat
So the [G]taste of [C]it may [E]linger
Right [G]now I'm [C]just a vo[E]lcano (l[C]ike I said!)
[G]On the [C]brink of [E]eruption ([C]like I said!)
Right [C/B]now I'm just a psycho
Hell [G]bent on self-destruction
Hell [E]bent on self-[C]destruction
Hell [G]bent on self-destruction
Hell [E]bent on self-[C]destruction
Chorus:
Love of [C]my lif[D]e
Gone [G5]forever[E5]
Love of [C]my lif[D]e
Gone for [G]good
Riff:
G C E C (x4)
I [G]wish I [C]may I [E]wish I [C]might
One [G]day live [C]life
Like a [E]person in [C]paradise
Right [G]now I'm [C]just a vo[E]lcano (l[C]ike I said!)
[G]On the [C]brink of [E]eruption ([C]like I said!)
Right [C/B]now I'm just a psycho
Hell [G]bent on self-destruction
Hell [E]bent on self-[C]destruction
Hell [G]bent on self-destruction

Bridge:
Rid[E]e o[G]r die
Br[C]others[D] for life
D[C]arkest[D] days
Co[E5]ldes[G5]t nights
(x2)
Th[G]ere ain't no doct[C]or on [D]Earth[C][D]
[(D)]There ain't no [E5]lord up [G5]above
[G]Who knows a [C]strong enough [D]medicine[C][D]
[(D)]Or a life[E5]-saving lo[G5]ve
Solo:
C/B A C G (x2)
[(G)]Like I said I thought I [C/B]was focused[A]
I thought I had it [C]figured out[G]
I had to [C/B]organize my words [A]good
Before they'd [C]fall right out my [G]mouth
And I had learned that t[C/B]he direction[A]
I was [C]walking was so [G]wrong
I just need a little [C/B]help here, man[A]
To find the [C]path I should be [G]on
Chorus:
Love of [C]my lif[D]e
Gone [G5]forever[E5]
Love of [C]my lif[D]e
Gone for [G]good
Love of [C]my lif[D]e
Gone [G5]forever[E5]
Get her [C]back good Lord
[D]Know I wish I [G]could
