Am (x02210) (Can be played 577555 in chorus but optional)
May the Lord have mercy on me since I kicked him in the teeth
I said bye bye sinning days - fare thee well
Could have stopped at number two but there was so much left to do
Does cheating on her send you straight to hell
Phone wakes me up at three, a naked body lies next to me
Who slipped her the mickey - bye bye
Run-up of E--0-2-3
Lets all drink them away, well try another day
Dont know any other way - La la la
As for life number four - wasted in the arms of whores
Farewell to innocence, fare thee well
Smoked my fifth life into black clouds, not a stitch left to be proud of
Bye bye to these five lives, fare thee well
Six little lives, six dirty lives,
talking rubbish and scrapping through the night
Farewell innocence fare thee well
Run-up of E--0-2-3
Lets all drink them away, well try another day
Dont know any other way - La la la
Seventh life making friends with God but he just wouldnt call me back
Bye bye redemption, fare thee well
Eight lives count down the days, that colossal fall from grace
Back to Pentonville to be alone
One lonely life on its knees cursing all he sees
And praying down the barrel of a gun
Run-up of E--0-2-3
Lets all drink them away, well try another day
Dont know any other way - La la la
Lets all drink them away, well try another day
Dont know any other way - La la la
End On Em
