[Intro] (whistling) C F Am G C F Am G [Verse 1]
C                         F
  When sadness fills your heart

Am                                   G
  And sorrow hides the longing to be free

C                                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

       C         F      G
To the needle of death
[Verse 2]
C                         F
  How strange, your happy words

Am                                  G
  Have ceased to bring a smile from everyone

C                           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

       C         F      G
To the needle of death
[Verse 2]
C                         F
  One grain of pure white snow

Am                                          G
  Dissolved in blood spread quickly to your brain
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

       C         F      G
To the needle of death
[Verse 3]
C                      F
  Your mother stands a'cryin'

Am                                      G
  While to the earth your body's slowly cast

C                       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

       C         F      G
To the needle of death
[Verse 4]
C                     F
  Through ages, man's desires

Am                                      G
  To free his mind, to releave his very soul

C                       F
  Has proved to all who live

Am                                 G
  That death itself is freedom for evermore
[Chorus]
     F
And your troubled young life

             C
Had made you turn

       C         F      G
To the needle of death
[Outro]
     F
And your troubled young life

             C
Had made you turn

       C         F      G
To the needle of death
