[Verse 1]
C C5 F When sadness fills your heart Am G G7 And sorrow hides the longing to be free C C5 F When things go wrong with each day Am G You fix your mind to 'scape your misery
[Chorus]
F Your troubled young life C Had made you turn C5 C2 G7sus2 G7 To the needle of death
[Verse 2]
C C5 F How strange, your happy words Am G G7 Have ceased to bring a smile from everyone C C5 F How tears have filled the eyes Am G Of friends that you once walked among
[Chorus]
F Your troubled young life C Had made you turn C5 C2 G7sus2 G7 To the needle of death
[Verse 2]
C C5 F One grain of pure white snow Am G G7 Dissolved in blood spread quickly to your brain C C5 F In peace your mind withdraws Am G Your death so near your soul can't feel no pain
[Chorus]
F Your troubled young life C Had made you turn C5 C2 G7sus2 G7 To the needle of death
[Verse 3]
C C5 F Your mother stands a'cryin' Am G G7 While to the earth your body's slowly cast C C5 F Your father stands in silence Am G Caressing every young dream of the past
[Chorus]
F And your troubled young life C Had made you turn C5 C2 G7sus2 G7 To the needle of death
[Verse 4]
C C5 F Through ages, man's desires Am G G7 To free his mind, to releave his very soul C C5 F Has proved to all who live Am G That death itself is freedom for evermore
[Chorus]

[Outro]
F And your troubled young life C Had made you turn C5 C2 G7sus2 G7 To the needle of death
