[Intro] Dsus2 D Dsus4 D [Verse 1]
Dsus2 D                        G                    A    Dsus2
        When you were nineteen I first laid eyes on you

D                                G
the small stream that ran through the center of town

A                          Dsus2 D
Carried your name to me

D                          G                   A       Dsus2
Your hair was dark and your eyes were a frosty blue

D                       G                         A
And then they put me in jail 'til you were twenty-three
[Verse 2]
                       G                    A    Dsus2
When you were 24, we took to drinking and dancing

D                          G                   A       Dsus2
We boxed with our shadows like a couple of kangaroos

D                          G                   A       Dsus2
And then we went down to Chechnya for the weekend

D                       G                         A
Your eyes were glacial and your promises all rang true
[Verse 3]
G                                     A
And things are happening here while we sleep

D                           G
I can feel it in my boiling brain

G                              A
And I am dreaming in blood-red color

D                                              G
When I see the stolypin car riding through the light rain

G
They'll have to carry me out on my back

G
They'll have to tear me to pieces all right

D                         A
we are warm in our hidden room down here

G                           D
we've got stars in our eyes tonight
