Fm                    D#
The end of the century
Fm                D#
I said my goodbyes
              Fm
For what it's worth
                      D#
I always aim to please
Fm               D#
But I nearly died
               Fm
For what it's worth
                   D#
Come on lay with me
Fm                D#
'Cause I'm on fire
               Fm
For what it's worth
                       D#
I tear the sun in three
Fm
To light up your eyes

Chorus:
              Fm
For what it's worth
For what it's worth
              D#
For what it's worth
              Fm
For what it's worth

Broke up the family
Everybody cried
For what it's worth
I have a slow disease
That sucked me dry
For what it's worth
Come on walk with me
Into the rising tide
For what it's worth
Filled a cavity
Your God-shaped hole tonight

Chorus - x2

Got no friends got no lover

No one cares when you're out on the street
Fm
Picking up the pieces to make ends meet
D#
No one cares when you're down in the gutter
Fm
Got no friends got no lover

              Fm
For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover

Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover

For what it's worth
Got no lover
