Pierre chords by Dave Malloy

Guitar chords with lyrics

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

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

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...
