GWe had fun in the sun
Cbut now you've thrown it awayG  
tossing out the baby with the bathtuCb
these dogs have strayeGd
you'll nDever know how hard I trEmied
Cto keep my worries in linDe
but they're all bastarGds
Ggone are the good old days
Cof painting young courtney pineG  
listened to the taunts and the shouts
Cof celebration wineG  
I never Dcould make it work out Emright
Cher milk glows in the blackliDght
but it don't matterG  
because no onDe comes out to Emsee usC  G  
because no onDe comes out to Emsee usC  G  
Cwell my pain's in a ruDt
CI've been lonely enougDh
CI've bled Los Angeles Dblood
CI've had enough of thiDs stuff
Intro Solo
Gyou can't go on with what you're doingC  
because they already knoGw
you run your life into ruinC  
there's so much to showG  
you'll never kDnow how hard I triEmed
her milk glows Cin the blacklightD  
but it don't matterG  
because no onDe comes out to Emsee usC  G  
because no onDe comes out to Emsee usC  G  
because no onDe comes out to Emsee usC  G  
Cwell my pain's in a ruDt
CI've been lonely long Denough
CI've bled Los Angeles Dblood
CI've had enough of thiDs stuff
because no onDe comes out to Emsee usC  G  
because no onDe comes out to Emsee usC  G
