E                  B  
This whiskey sour,    amateur hour
 A
Raise your glass and toast your friends
 Am
Someday we will fight again well..

E           G#m
Your enemies,  your tragedies
 A
Pocketknives and Rusty chains
  B
Where the hell is the old gang at?

F#m          G#m
And all the losers,
      A             B
Can't even win for losing
F#m        G#m
And the beginners.
             A                     B
Don't even know what song they're singing

Chorus:
              E            B
Well there's no one left around!
            E            B
You're the last gang in town!
         C#m              G#m
And your heart can't even break
         A            B
when it doesn't even pound!

Well, there's no one left around
And you're the last gang in town
And your heart can't even break
When it doesn't even pound

This broken scene is turning green
And brass knuckles left in the rain
Death wish kids among the living

I wanna ride on the divided
Anything but the mainstream
Where the fuck is your old gang, man?

And all the losers
Can't even win for losing
And the beginners
Don't even know what song they're singing

    A                             E
So long! you didn't even say goodnight
    A
So long! there's nowhere to go when
        B
you're hiding in plain sight!
