[Verse 1]
D Cadd9 G Fadd9 And in the evening when you fade away D Cadd9 G Fadd9 The same thing happens every single day D Cadd9 G Em D Cause when your dreams come true they pretty soon decay
[Verse 2]
D Cadd9 G Fadd9 There's nothing you can do to change your mind D Cadd9 G Fadd9 You're disappearing or you're going blind D Cadd9 G Em D And when you're gone there won't be anything behind
[Chorus]
G F C G Except a skull, a suitcase, and a long red bottle of wine G F C G A skull, a suitcase, and a long red bottle of wine
[Verse 3]
D Cadd9 G Fadd9 You're disappearing in a purple fog D Cadd9 G Fadd9 It's a machine and you're its faithful cog D Cadd9 G Em D You love your woman but you just don't love her dog
[Chorus]
G F C G Which means you get a skull, a suitcase, and a long red bottle of wine G F C G A skull, a suitcase, and a long red bottle of wine
[Bridge]
Em D C G There you go putting up no resistance C G You just wander off through the town C Dsus4 D Lock yourself out and drown Em D C G But when you're gone, does it make any difference C G If there's nobody else around C D Dsus4 D The only way up is down
[Verse 4]
D Cadd9 G Fadd9 The giant sun sets red behind the hay D Cadd9 G Fadd9 Like a balloon that has just lost its way D Cadd9 G Em D You never dreamed that stuff would get you in its sway
[Chorus]
G F C G Give me a skull, a suitcase, and a long red bottle of wine G F C G Give me a skull, a suitcase, and a long red bottle of wine
[Solo]
D Cadd9 G Fadd9
D Cadd9 G Fadd9
D Cadd9 G Em D
[Chorus]
G F C G Give me a skull, a suitcase, and a long red bottle of wine G F C G Give me a skull, a suitcase, and a long red bottle of wine
[Outro]
C G Red bottle of wine
