Ever had a feeling that you can't go on?

Verse:
F                Gm
Your bedroom carpet stained with rose wine
    Bb            F
Empty's left behind, the morning after
              Gm
The distant purr of cars on soaking roads
    Bb             F
And the street echoes the noise of laughter


Pre-Chorus:
C      Bb       Am        Gm
 The bottom of the bottle, finds you almost every night

 You wonder if your life is ever gonna turn out right again

Bridge:
C       Bb       Am      Gm
 Confused and battered by the motion of the changing tides
C        Bb        Am      Gm
 You're nearing empty and you've barely got the will to fight
C      Bb       Am       Gm
 You wonder if you're gonna live or if you will survive

Ohhh...


Chorus:
F                  C
