G#m            E            B
Richard how's life on your side?
G#m            E            B
Your love and all start to melt.
G#m        E             B
Richard i fell on your lies,
G#m          E                B
Richard you slowly felt your fear.

The silent life falls apart
Your life succumbs, sun is dry
Richard, your soul's all I know
Richard, I'm cold and out of hope

Chorus:
G#m        D#m               E
There's a lie you told it's gone,
G#m            D#m        E              B
Richard your lying on, entirely on your side.
B             D#m              E          B
Pour out your old remorse, to pick it up again,
B             E               B
Richard I'll hold you like I can.

Your life it all sounds so wrong,
Richard your light is so raw,
In might your soul's not you own,
Oh Richard I'll miss you when you're gone.

Chorus:
You loved all the signs you see,
Richard I know it's hard to pull without a goal,
Richard and all your friends,
you'll see us all again,
Richard I know you left your heart.
