lyrics

Everything Is Golden

INTRO
F#m
VERSE 1
F#m
As sure as Lenin lies in state
F#m
Behind the walls of Kremlin's gate
Bm
As sure as Moscow's winter's long
Bm
It's cold air full with workers song
D
The glass is never empty
A
The glass is never full
C# B A G# A
Life is but a drink
(G#) A D G#
Oh, oh, oh, oh,
C# B A G# F#m E F#m E
And Everything is Golden


VERSE 2
The strongest smokes I ever smoked
My lungs turned black I nearly choked
No time now we're headed North
Tomorrow we hit St. Petersburg
Our spirits never broken
Our bellies never full

The glass is never empty
The glass is never full
Life is but a drink
Oh, oh, oh, oh,
And Everything is Golden



CHORUS
A
I could spend a thousand nights
E
Filled with golden lights
C# F#m
Just don't wake me in the morning
A E
All those dancing days in a drunken haze
C# C#7
We all know, we know just where we're going now



VERSE 3
As the cosmonaut floats in space
Miles above the human race
His thoughts they seem to linger on
Wine and women and workers song
The battle may be over
But the war is never won

The glass is never empty
The glass is never full
Life is but a drink
Oh, oh, oh, oh,
And Everything is Golden

CHORUS
I could spend a thousand nights
Filled with golden lights
Just don't wake me in the morning
All those dancing days in a drunken haze
We all know, we know just where we're going now
