[Intro] G | C Em | [x2] [Verse]
       G
“Is it raining where you are?”

         C                      Em
The only thing I could think to ask

            G                G
But nothing ever hurt so bad

        C                 Em
As the “no” that you said back

                    C/B      A
But ain't that the truth, man?

          C        G
Those are just facts

                C/B               A
The farther you go from where you start

              C            G
The harder it is to get back
[Chorus]
        C     D
Love of my life

     G      Em

Love of my life

Gone for good

G
This is for all my friends in West Virginia
Riff: G C Em C [x4] [Verse]

The good stuff comes, the good stuff goes

    G          C        Em      C
The good stuff seems so hard to hold

    G           C     Em         C
Hope it slides slowly down your throat

       G        C      Em
So the taste of it may linger

      G       C        Em      C
Right now I'm just a volcano (like I said!)

G      C        Em        C     
On the brink of eruption (like I said!)

     G        C      Em     C
Right now I'm just a psycho

     G
Hell bent on self-destruction

     Em           C
Hell bent on self-destruction

     G
Hell bent on self-destruction

     Em           C
Hell bent on self-destruction
[Chorus]
        C     D

Love of my life

Gone for good

I wish I may I wish I might

    G        C
One day live life

       Em        C
Like a person in paradise

      G       C        Em      C
Right now I'm just a volcano (like I said!)

G      C        Em        C     
On the brink of eruption (like I said!)

    G        C      Em    C
Right now I'm just a psycho

Hell bent on self-destruction

     Em           C

[x2]
  G                C     D     C   D
There ain't no doctor on Earth

(D)            Em      G
There ain't no lord up above

G           C             D        C   D
Who knows a strong enough medicine

Or a life-saving love
[Solo] C/B A C G [x2] [Verse]
(G)                     C/B         A
Like I said I thought I was focused

                   C           G
I thought I had it figured out

         C/B               A
I had to organize my words good

              C                 G
Before they'd fall right out my mouth

                        C/B          A
And I had learned that the direction

      C              G
I was walking was so wrong

                     C/B            A
I just need a little help here, man

            C                G
To find the path I should be on
[Chorus]
        C     D
Love of my life

     G       Em
Gone forever

        C     D
Love of my life

         G
Gone for good

        C     D
Love of my life

     G       Em
Gone forever

        C            
Get her back good Lord

D             G
Know I wish I could
