Chorus:
Am Em
There’s gotta be a reason that I’m here on Earth
F C
Gotta be a reason for the dust and the dirt
Am Em
The changing of the seasons never changed my hurt
F G
So what’s it worth? What’s it worth?
Am Em
Worth another shot of whiskey and another sip of gin
F C
Another drop of poison that is slowly sinking in
Am
If we’re going down together,
Em
better take another hit
F
We won’t be here forever,
G
so let’s make the best of it
Post-Chorus
Am
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Em F C
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Am
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Em F G
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Verse 1:
Am Em
Walking down to the burial ground
F C
With a sad song in his brain
Am Em
General Cloud is an old man now
F G
But it feels like yesterday
Am Em
He was on the front lines, stranded on the beach
F C
Crawling to his best friend, floating in the sea
Am Em
But he didn’t make it, he still can’t believe
F G
How arbitrary fate is, he says
Chorus:
Am Em
There’s gotta be a reason that I’m here on Earth
F C
Gotta be a reason for the dust and the dirt
Am Em
The changing of the seasons never changed my hurt

So what’s it worth? What’s it worth?

Worth another shot of whiskey and another sip of gin

Verse 2:
Am Em
She went down to her job in town
F C
With a sad song in her heart
Am Em F G
33 with a wasted dream to become a movie star
Am Em
Living out a suitcase, serving at a bar
F C
Saving up some pennies, working after dark
Am Em
Is she gonna make it? She still can’t believe
F G
How arbitrary fate is, she says
Chorus:
Am Em
There’s gotta be a reason that I’m here on Earth

Gotta be a reason for the dust and the dirt
