[Verse]
G                      A#         A      G
A man and his wife and kids stand on the street
G                              A#        A        D
He's got two little girls just knee high from his feet
    C
But as he turns to say goodbye
           Bm
He's got a kiss for the girls but not his wife
   C
He looks to the sky and he wonders where
   Am                D    C
Oh where went all of life

[Chorus]
G                          A#      A      G
And hope dissolves like an aspirin on his tongue

[Verse]
G              A#          A    G
An able-bodied boy with an able mind
G                           A#      A       D
He falls for the wrong sort proving love is blind
C
They fell in love after falling in bed
     Bm
They tried to smile when the doctor said
    C
You created a life but you failed to say
    Am                  D    C
You shot your own lifes dead

[Chorus]
G                          A#      A      G
And hope dissolves like an aspirin on his tongue

[Verse]
G                      A#         A            G
An old man sits with a beer and a barrel and a gun
   G              A#        A      D
He says if all is lost then all is won
         C
He's got one last thing left to declare
      Bm
As he sits there dying in his rocking chair
     C
Says stop this unfair warfare
        Am              D   C
Or I'll tear out all my hair

[Chorus]
G                          A#      A      G
And hope dissolves like an aspirin on his tongue
G                          A#      A      G
And hope dissolves like an aspirin on his tongue
G                          A#      A      G
And hope dissolves like an aspirin on his tongue
