ESweet Goccasion and an Dold champagneE  
ESnowblind Gdown an Dunmarked roadE  
CBroken two hearts Dthat feel the Empain
Or the Ahope that Emdied
CRescued, I would Dalmost Embe
[Em]But [A]for [C]the [Em]misery
{eoc}
I came to, in a human hell
It hit me hard and my spirits fell
Heart and soul, broke and abused
From a strangers rage
No I'll never be set free
By this misery, by this misery
AMisery, what did I do?
CMisery Emdid I Cdeserve a fate like Emyou?
CMisery, will it ever pass?
BWill I find the guts to last?
{c: Guitar Solo}
Patience gone, feel the end in sight
I'll be free today or I'll be dead tonight
Dear Lord, why have you gone and forsaken me?
Will I finally be set free?
From this misery, from this misery
Yeah, this misery, yeah misery
Why did ya do it? Why'd ya do it now?
In all this misery
