[Verse 1]
D           G                    C G     C  D
Three angels settin a table for me tonight
D                 G                               C G     C  D
They know my face, they set a place and it's for me tonight
       D                  G                       C
Well I can't disappoint em, I guess I'll join em,
                     G    C  D
They been waitin on me forever
D                  G
And I been down, on earth and in this town
      C                           G    C    D
And I swear there's gotta be something better

[Pre-Chorus]
D        G              C                    G   C         D
New suit, and a new tie, a real nice service for me when I die.
D                     G               C                 G   C         D
New suit, cufflinks, and a new tie, a real nice service for me when I die.

[Chorus]
D                           E
Well that's the thing about livin,
        G                           C   D
When ya get there, you're seldom forgiven.
D                             E                      G    C   D
And all your best friends are people that you just met.
        D
You can take em or you leave em,
             E
Well they're sittin in this barroom,
      G
And I guess that beats the hell outta,
C D              C D               C D          C D
Loneliness, sweet loneliness, sweet loneliness.

[Bridge]
E                    G
They say ya gave it, gave it all away,
A
Well you got nothin, nothin left to trade.
E                G
I hear you sayin, I gave it all away,
A                                         E  G  A  A
you've got nothin, nothin left to trade.

[Verse 2]
D               G                  C                G         C        D
We're the type, we live and learn, scatter my ashes then you smash the urn.
D                   G                          C    G  C D
Into a broken room, with 25 doors that you can open.
D                           G                     C         G   C   D
And each time you open one, the other 24, they're explodin, explodin.

[Chorus]
D                      E               G                              C    D
That's the thing about livin, when you get there you take what you're given
D                             E                  D
And all your best friends are people you just met.
        D                                E
You can take em or you leave em, they're sittin in this barroom,
      G
But I guess that beats the hell outta loneliness,

Sweet loneliness, sweet loneliness, sweet
D        G        C                    G   C         D
New suit, new tie, a real nice service for me when I die.
