Tuning: Regular
There are a couple of dodgy versions of this kicking around, but I think this is
closer to how it should be played! (I think!)
Enjoy!

He used to be the life and soul of everyone around

He couldnt raise a smile oh, not for a while and, he's a failure now.

E||--------------------|----------------------|
Dont cry child, youve got so much more to live for,
Dont cry child, youve got something I would die for,
And if it comes to the rain, just be glad youll smile again,
Cause so many don't
And so many go unnamed.
[Verse 3]
(same a Verses 1 and 2)
People push right past me shouting various claims
A preacher pushes me a side and asked to wash my sins i said no, la laa
If he made me in his image, then hes a failure too.
[Verse 4]
(same as others but drop the last 2 bars and go straight into the bridge)
And I used to need a couple of people to keep my head down
Now I need a whole lot more to keep me on the ground but oh, la laa
I gave up something and I gave it up for nothing and I am failure now.
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
