Am

          G           F
Here I sit at the fire
                        C     
Liquor's bitter flames warm my 
          G6  Am
languid soul
                  G             F
Here I drink alone and remember
                    C          
A graven life, the stain of her 
  Em7   Am
memory
            G              F
In this cup, love's poison
                  C        G6   Am
For love is the poison of life
            G             F
Tip the cup, feed the fire,
                  C             
And forget about useless fucking 
  Em7
hope. . .

Am            Em7          G   Am
Lost in the desolation of love

      G          F        Am
The passions we reap and sow
              Em7          G   Am
Lost in the desolation of life
      G            F     Am
This path that we walk. . .

G  F  C  G6

Am  G  F  C  Em7  Am

               G             F
Here's to love, the sickness
            C            G6  Am
The great martyr of the soul
               G         F
Here's to life, the vice
           C         Em7   Am
The great herald of misery
            G                  F
In this cup, spiritus frumenti
                 C              
For this is the nectar of the 
Em7  Am
spirit
                  G                
Quench the thirst, drown the sorrow
 F

                  C      Em7
And forget about cold yesterdays. .

This path that we walk. . .
