D                 F#m 
It's dawned on me suddenly 
        D          F#m 
And for no obvious reason 
       Em       B 
That I can't go on 
            Em 
Living as I am 
     C                G 
The zest of life has vanished 
         F#          Bm 
Only the skeleton remains 
             Em/G 
Unexpectedly vile 
             F# 
I used to be better 
             F 
I used to be better 
             Em 
I used to be better 
             F# 
I used to be better 
             F 
I used to be better 
             Em 
I used to be better 

ALL 
Em  G 
Oh, Pierre 
    Am               Em 
Our married feasting crank 
          C          G 
Our most dear, most kind 
     Am        Em 
Most smart and eccentric 
  C                           G 
A warm-hearted Russian of the old-school 
    Am              Em 
His purse is always empty 
              B      Em 
Because it's open to all 
    Am 
Oh Pierre 
     B                Em      C 
Just one of a hundred sad old men 
B                              Em 
Living out their final days in Moscow 

PIERRE 
  D         F#m 
I drink too much 
      D                          F#m 
Right now, my friend fights and bleeds 
                       Em 
And I sit at home and read 
            B 
Hours at a time 
             Em 
Hours at my screen 
Em 
Anything, anything 
C              G 
Abandoned to distraction 
    F#       Bm 
In order to forget 
              Em 
We waste our lives 
             F# F Em 
Drowning in wine... 
Em                                    F# F 
I never thought that I'd end up like this 
F            Em 
I used to be better 
        C               G 
And the women, they all pity me 
            D 
Because I'm married 
     E      Am 
But not in love 
B              Am 
Frozen at the center 

WOMEN 
Bm       F#             Bm      F# 
Il est charmant; il n'a pas de sexe 
      Bm            F#    Bm 
He is charming; he has no sex 

ALL 
Em  G 
Oh, Pierre 
    Am               Em 
Our married feasting crank 
          C          G 
Our most dear, most kind 
     Am        Em 
Most smart and eccentric 
  C                           G 
A warm-hearted Russian of the old-school 
    Am              Em 
His purse is always empty 
              B      Em 
Because it's open to all 
    Am 
Oh Pierre 
     B                Em      C 
Just one of a hundred sad old men 
B                              Em 
Living out their final days in Moscow 

PIERRE 
E                    Am 
There's a ringing my head 
           G              D 
There's a sickness in the world 
D             F#m 
And everyone knows 
    Bm                        E 
But pretends that they don't see 
                      A 
Oh, I'll sort it out later 
                 F#m 
But later never comes 

PIERRE & MEN 
        D        A 
And how many men before 
D            A 
Good Russian men 
   G         F#            Bm 
Believing in goodness and truth 

PIERRE 
A             G     
Entered that door 
                          D 
With all their teeth and hair 
     C#                    F#m 
And left it toothless and bald? 
    F#7       Bm 
You empty and stupid 
    F#7       Bm 
Contented fellows 
    F#7       Bm    F#7       Bm 
Satisfied with your place 
     F#7           Bm 
I'm different from you 
     F#7           Bm      
I'm different from you 
   F#7   Bm        F#7 Emadd9 Bm 
I still want to do something 
   B               Em 
Or do you struggle too? 
  F# 
I pity you 
  F 
I pity me 
  Em 
I pity you 
  F# 
I pity you 
  F 
I pity me 
  Em 
I pity you 

ALL 
Em 
Ahh...
