Renato Russo

Tom: C

Intro: C  D  G4  G  G9  G

G               D/F#   Em        Em7
Everytime I've lost another lover
C  C/A        D         D4 D
I call up my old friend
    C                D
And say let's get together
C              D
I'm under the weather
C        D                 G
Another love has suddenly come to an end
        G            D/F#        Em       Em7
And he listens as I tell him my sad story
     C            C/A       D  D4 D
And wonders at my taste in men
       C            D
And we wonder why I do it
         C                D
And the pain of getting through it
         C             D                G      G7
And he laughs and says: "You'll do it again !"
        C       D         G
And we sit in a bar and talk till two
       F        G       C4    C    C
'Bout life and love as old friends do
    D/F#       D          G
And tell each other what we've been through
  C          D   Bm      Em7
How love is rare, life is strange
C          D  Bm     Em7
Nothing lasts, people change

(Intro)

      G               D/F#        Em        Em7
And I ask him if his life is ever lonely
C         C/A           D     D4 D
And if he ever feels despair
         C                  D
And he says he's learned to love it
                C            D
'Cause that's really a part of it
        C                 D                       G      G7
And it helps him feel the good times when they're there

(Refrão)

      G               D/F#        Em        Em7
And we wonder if I'll live with any lover
C  C/A             D     D4 D
Or spend my life alone
        C            D
And the bartender is dozing
           C                 D
And it's getting time for closing        |Sobe meio tom aqui|
       C                 D            G   G#
So we figure that I'll make it on my own

           C#         Eb         G#
But we'll meet in the year we're sixty-two
     F#         G#     C#4    C#    C#
And travel the world as old friends do
     Eb/G      Eb        G#
And tell each other what we've been through
    C#      Eb   Cm      Fm7
How love is rare, life is strange
C#      Eb    Cm     Fm7
Nothing lasts, people change
C#      Eb   Cm       Fm7
Love is rare, life is strange
C#      Eb    Cm        Fm7
Nothing lasts, people... change...
