VERSE:
I`ve been across the water now so many times
I`ve seen the one eyed witchdoctor leading the blind
But still you ask me do I love you, what you say, what you say
Everytime I put my finger on it, it slips away
Everytime I put my finger on it, it slips away

BRIDGE:
F F+5 F6 F-B-F
Well I get up in the morning and I`m looking in the mirror to see, ooo

F F+5 F6 F-B-F
Then I`m lying in the darkness and I know I can`t get to sleep, ooo wee!

CHORUS:
Nobody loves you when you`re old and grey
Nobody needs you when you`re upside down
Everybody`s hollerin` `bout their own birthday
Everybody loves you when you`re six foot in the ground
