[Chorus]    
If I Amever leave this world alive
I’ll kCick and scream and whirl till I’ve
Had Gone more drink, that cognac brown,
in a Dglass celled bottle two shots per round
While they’re Amshooting metal in this heavy town,
In a Ccandlelit bar with its stone paved ground
that Gtreaded on have many amen,
While Dgod’s green hand handed whiskey and sin
out to Amall of us with outstretched hand
and Cbrim-filled glass up all at once
with Ghalf spilled sips for the dead men ripped
DAway from us too soon.
[Verse 1]
The Emstone-heart shatters Cbit by bit
in Gfragments fit for a cold stone floor
Crushed by Chopeful dreams of fast floating and Emfriends
In an Amupturned hump of pumping flesh
In the Cthrob of snow-lit endlessness
Beside Gsniffling victimless partners in criminal Dtime
[Chorus 2]
If I eAmver leave this world alive
I’ll kiCck and scream and whirl till I’ve
Had oGne more drink, that cognac brown,
in a Dglass celled bottle two shots per round
And Amall of us with outstretched hand
and Cbrim-slipping glass raised for our band
with Ghalf spilled sips for those dead men ripped
DAway from us too soon.
[Verse 2]
The Emold clock rhymes by tick and tick
As we Cready this house for the nightly thrall
With Dmemories in paper of our sugar-surfing-Emman
In an Amupturned hump of pumping flesh
In the Cthrob of snow-lit endlessness
‘Longside our Gsniffling victimless Dpartners in criminal Emtime
and Amfall down churners that Gkept this night Dalive
with their Emkicktalk distant dog day dreams
And the Cpink-painted vodka catastrophes
And the Gred-light fights with Emblood and neon Dstains
[Chorus 3]
If I Amever leave this world alive
I’ll kCick and scream and whirl till I’ve
Had one Gmore drink, that cognac brown,
in a Dglass celled bottle two shots per round
while I’m Ampulling heavy this metal town,
A Ccandlelit bar with its stone paved ground
that Gtreaded on have many amen,
While Dgod’s green hand handed whiskey and sin
out to Amall of us with outstretched hand
With Cshiny gold coins for the old boatman
and Ghalf spilled sips for the dead men ripped
DAway from us too soon.
[Chorus Finale]
If I evAmer leave this world alive
I’ll kCick and scream and whirl till I’ve
Had Gone more drink, that cognac brown,
in a Dglass celled bottle two shots per round
with Emhalf spilled sips for those dead men ripped
DRipped away from us too sEmoon.

[Chorus]

If I ever leave this world alive

I’ll kick and scream and whirl till I’ve

Had one more drink, that cognac brown,

in a glass celled bottle two shots per round

While they’re shooting metal in this heavy town,

In a candlelit bar with its stone paved ground

that treaded on have many amen,

While god’s green hand handed whiskey and sin

out to all of us with outstretched hand

and brim-filled glass up all at once

with half spilled sips for the dead men ripped

Away from us too soon.

[Verse 1]

Em C

The stone-heart shatters bit by bit

in fragments fit for a cold stone floor

C Em

Crushed by hopeful dreams of fast floating and friends

In an upturned hump of pumping flesh

In the throb of snow-lit endlessness

G D

Beside sniffling victimless partners in criminal time

[Chorus 2]

If I ever leave this world alive

I’ll kick and scream and whirl till I’ve

Had one more drink, that cognac brown,

in a glass celled bottle two shots per round

And all of us with outstretched hand

and brim-slipping glass raised for our band

with half spilled sips for those dead men ripped

Away from us too soon.

[Verse 2]

The old clock rhymes by tick and tick

As we ready this house for the nightly thrall

D Em

With memories in paper of our sugar-surfing-man

In an upturned hump of pumping flesh

In the throb of snow-lit endlessness

G D Em

‘Longside our sniffling victimless partners in criminal time

Am G D

and fall down churners that kept this night alive

with their kicktalk distant dog day dreams

And the pink-painted vodka catastrophes

G Em D

And the red-light fights with blood and neon stains

[Chorus 3]

If I ever leave this world alive

I’ll kick and scream and whirl till I’ve

Had one more drink, that cognac brown,

in a glass celled bottle two shots per round

while I’m pulling heavy this metal town,

A candlelit bar with its stone paved ground

that treaded on have many amen,

While god’s green hand handed whiskey and sin

out to all of us with outstretched hand

With shiny gold coins for the old boatman

and half spilled sips for the dead men ripped

Away from us too soon.

[Chorus Finale]

If I ever leave this world alive

I’ll kick and scream and whirl till I’ve

Had one more drink, that cognac brown,

in a glass celled bottle two shots per round

with half spilled sips for those dead men ripped

D Em

Ripped away from us too soon.
