[Intro]
Am Am Em Em F F C C

[Chorus]
Am Am Em Em
There's gotta be a reason that I'm here on Earth
F F C C
Gotta be a reason for the dust and the dirt
Am Am Em Em
The changing of the seasons never changed my hurt
F F G G
So what's it worth? What's it worth?
Am Am Em Em
Worth another shot of whiskey and another sip of gin
F F C C
Another drop of poison that is slowly sinking in
Am Am Em Em
If we're going down together, better take another hit
F F G G
We won't be here forever, so let's make the best of it

[Post-Chorus]
Am Am
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Em Em F F C C
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Am Am
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Em Em F F G G
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
Am Am Em Em
Walking down to the burial ground
F F C C
With a sad song in his brain
Am Am Em Em
General Cloud is an old man now
F F G G
But it feels like yesterday
Am Am Em Em
He was on the front lines, stranded on the beach
F F C C
Crawling to his best friend, floating in the sea
Am Am Em Em
But he didn't make it, he still can't believe
F F G G
How arbitrary fate is, he says

[Chorus]
Am Am Em Em
There's gotta be a reason that I'm here on Earth
F F C C
Gotta be a reason for the dust and the dirt
Am Am Em Em
The changing of the seasons never changed my hurt
F F G G
So what's it worth? What's it worth?
Am Am Em Em
Worth another shot of whiskey and another sip of gin
F F C C
Another drop of poison that is slowly sinking in
Am Am Em Em
If we're going down together, better take another hit
F F G G
We won't be here forever, so let's make the best of it

[Post-Chorus]
Am Am
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Em Em F F C C
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Am Am
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Em Em F F G G
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 2]
Am Am Em Em
She went down to her job in town
F F C C
With a sad song in her heart
Am Am Em Em F F G G
33 with a wasted dream to become a movie star
Am Am Em Em
Living out a suitcase, serving at a bar
F F C C
Saving up some pennies, working after dark
Am Am Em Em
Is she gonna make it? She still can't believe
F F G G
How arbitrary fate is, she says

[Chorus]
Am Am Em Em
There's gotta be a reason that I'm here on Earth
F F C C
Gotta be a reason for the dust and the dirt
Am Am Em Em
The changing of the seasons never changed my hurt
F F G G
So what's it worth? What's it worth?
Am Am Em Em
Worth another shot of whiskey and another sip of gin
F F C C
Another drop of poison that is slowly sinking in
Am Am Em Em
If we're going down together, better take another hit
F F G G
We won't be here forever, so let's make the best of it

[Post-Chorus]
Am Am
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Em Em F F C C
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Am Am
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Em Em F F G G
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Chorus]
Am Am Em Em
There's gotta be a reason that I'm here on Earth
F F C C
Gotta be a reason for the dust and the dirt
Am Am Em Em
The changing of the seasons never changed my hurt
F F G G
So what's it worth? What's it worth?
Am Am Em Em
Worth another shot of whiskey and another sip of gin
F F C C
Another drop of poison that is slowly sinking in
