G        C             G                       C         D
Slowly I fall with the rain & the future looks grim once again 
Em          C     G             D
Bottles and pills I´m up on the hills 
C            D          G
Stuck with a ball and a chain 
G            C      G                         C         D
This city is so obsolete the drunks they fuck up on the streets 
Em                    C                G             D
But that´s the way it goes when you´re down in Västerås 
C            D            G
Sick of life ain´t that a treat 

Em                       C
Straight out of nowhere  it´s coming on fast 
G                         D
I sit here and wonder how long will it last 
C          D                Em
Some of my best friends are gone 
        C            G               D
And the others don´t know where they belong 
Em
So light up the sky the beat must go on 
C
Raise my glass for the black river song 
G                C        D
And drink all my problems away 
C           D            G
Tomorrow is just another day 
G        C           G                      C          D
Lonely & hammered at night and true love is way out of sight 
Em              C          G                D
A broke working class will shove it up your ass 
C                   D       G
But I know it won´t make it alright 

Em                      C
Straight out of nowhere it´s coming on fast 
G                         D
I sit here and wonder how long will it last 
C          D                Em

Tomorrow is just another day 
G                  C       G                  C          D
Let the punishment finally begin for a life I traded for sin 
Em                   C          G           D
Yeah,I sure paid the cost for a love that I lost 
C                 D         G
Strung out with a bottle of Gin 

Em
So light up the sky the beat must go on 
C
Raise my glass for the black river song 
G                C        D
