He re is a chords for Gahan’s song “Bottle living”. It is very simple and blues-
style. I advice you to play it with barre or power chords 🙂

Intro:

He’s like a king without a crown
He wears it like a clown
Watch him disappear
I wish he would come down

Chorus:
E G A (riff)
So call before you drown
E G A (riff)
I won’t always be around
E G A (riff)
Living for the bottle
E G A (riff)
He’s living for the bottle

Break:

He’s a ship without a sail
He’s not listening when you speak
Living for the bottle
He’ll be sitting there all week

Chorus:
E G A (riff)
So call before you drown
E G A (riff)
I won’t always be around
E G A (riff)
Living for the bottle
E G A (riff)
He’s living for the bottle
Yeah!

E G A (riff)
There’s no light on in his eyes
E G A (riff)
How heavy are the lies
E G A (riff)
Just jumped right out his skin
E G A (riff)
He’ll take you for a ride
B A G (riff 2)
Living for the bottle
B A G (riff 2)
He’s living for the bottle
B A G (riff 2)
So call before you drown
B A G (riff 2)
I won’t always be around

Break:
He’s a dog without a bite
Still looking for a fight
All in black
He won’t be home tonight
Yeah!

Chorus:
E G A (riff)
There’s no light on in his eyes
E G A (riff)
How heavy are the lies
E G A (riff)
Just jumped right out his skin
E G A (riff)
He’ll take you for a ride
E G A (riff)
Living for the bottle
E G A (riff)
He’s living for the bottle
E G A (riff)
I won’t always be around
E G A (riff)
So call before you drown

1st verse:
You keep sending me all these things
I’m learning how to smile
You keep sending me all these things
I think I’ll stay a while

2nd verse:
Tried to talk to you in my dream
You looked at me and smiled
Your smile said to me
I’ll have to wait a while
I have to wait a while

Chorus:
Hold on You opened my eyes today
Hold on Another surprise

3rd verse:
You keep giving me all these things
I see them in your smile
You keep giving me all these things
I think I’ll stay a while

I guess I’ll stay a while

Intro:
G A# G G(XV)

Lyrics 1:
I’m back in the room with the two way door
I don’t know where it is sure been there before
The thoughts in my head I just can’t describe
They’re just too insane all outside

Chorus:
All my apologies have been used up
All my words are[(D)] not enough
I’m asking you on my knees
Look inside me I’m black and blue again
Black and blue again

Lyrics:
Do you remember we were such good friends
Now we’re back in the ring fighting again
The taste that’s in my mouth you see
It’s not very nice screaming at you
There’s tears in your eyes

Chorus

Lyrics:
I’m not very nice
You see I’m not very nice
You said I’m not very nice
You know I’m not very nice

Chorus

Lyrics:
I’m not very nice
You see I’m not very nice
You said I’m not very nice
You know I’m not very nice

(And fades out…)

P.S.: It’s better to play intro and lyrics part by power chords. I advice at first th
listen the original – I made it by memory without pre-listening :))

Intro:

It isn’t very hard to see from where I stand there’s no one to blame
I opened up my eyes to see a world with so much pleasure, not pain
As she looked into my eyes I knew I might not see her again
We’re changing and it’s hard for me to stay the same

Chorus:
She answers all the questions, things I find so very hard to say
As I closed my eyes
I heard her whisper goodbye
All these questions that I’m asking feel very foolish anyway
Goodbye
As I turned the corner I heard her whisper again
Goodbye

It’s what she said
Goodbye
It’s what she said 3

I loved her from the first time we kissed, she tastes so great
She lit another candle and slowly fell into the flame

She answers all the questions, things I find so very hard to say
As I closed my eyes
I heard her whisper goodbye
All these questions that I’m asking feel very foolish anyway
Goodbye
As I turned the corner I heard her whisper again
Goodbye

It’s what she said
Goodbye
It’s what she said 3

Goodbye 4
