Lisa likes brandy and the way it hits her lips
She's a rock 'n' roll survivor with pendulum hips
A augmentedA E MajorE
She's got deep brown eyes, that've seen it all
Working at a nightclub that was called The Avenue
The bar men used to call her "Little Lisa, Looney Tunes"
A augmentedA E MajorE
She went down on almost anyone
F# minorF#m E MajorE
From the hard time living 'til the Chelsea days
A augmentedA BB
From when her hair was sweet blonde 'til the day it turned gray, she said :

Some people wear their history like a map on their face
And Joey was an artist just living out of case
A augmentedA E MajorE
But his best word was his letters home
E MajorE
His standard works of fiction about imaginary success
The chorus girls in neon were his closest things to friends
A augmentedA E MajorE
But to a writer, the truth is no big deal
F# minorF#m E MajorE
From the hard time living to the sleepless nights
A augmentedA BB
And the black and blue body from the weekend fights. he'd say
Chorus
Bridge:
A augmentedA E MajorE C# minorC#m BB
On my last night on earth, I won't look to the sky
E MajorE A augmentedA C# minorC#m BB
Just breathe in the air and blink in the light
A augmentedA E MajorE C# minorC#m BB
On my last night on earth, I'll pay a high price
E MajorE A augmentedA C# minorC#m BB
To have no regrets and be done with my life
Chorus (x2)
