verse 1 
F 
He was only 25 
Am  F       Am       Dm    
Had an open heart and tender mind 
Cm      Bb          Cm           Bb 
He sang through all the hymns he knew 
Bb 
He was searching for a higher sign 
F        Bb                     Gb 
When his water was turned to wine 
Bb               Em      F 
All the darkness became light 
       Am 
Babies and a patient wife 
F         Am             Dm 
They just weren't enough to keep him high 
Cm 
So he gave them up 
Cm 
Just to fill his cup 
Bb                            F 
Every sip would make him feel alive 
Bb          F             Gb 
No bones in his body were dry 

Am     Dm   F 
It's a tragedy 
Am     Dm Am Cm 
It's a tragedy 
Bb     Cm Bb  F 
It's a tragedy 
Bb     Gb  Db

Em F 

verse 2 
F 
Now he's finally coming around 
         Dm 
He's got wrinkles and a crooked frown 
F        Cm         Bb              Cm 
He holds back tears thinking of the years 
Bb                         F 
That the bottle had a long time, down 
   Bb 
So he'd sit and have another round 
              F    Eb      F 
Singing Hallelujah till he drowns
