Here at the glamorous backstage of the Montreux Casino, we are just wondering whether you pronounce it [Bm] Depeche or Depeche.
[E] It's an odd number in the year, so it's Depeche this [D] year.
[Bm] Depeche.
[A] Oh heck, it's changed [E] again.
[Bm] Welcome back to this piece of red string.
[B] Do you realise this piece of red string [E] was here last year?
Probably was, yeah.
So [Bm] were you.
Actually I remember going past it and [B] doing some of that, yeah.
What have you been up to?
You've been touring, haven't [E] you?
We were [Bm] touring pretty heavily last year.
At the moment we're [E] in the studio doing the new album, which hopefully will be out in September, [B] but just with a new single at the moment.
And Martin's been taking the weightlifting [E] lessons to pick up the guitar.
Yeah, [B] I know.
It's difficult, I'm confused.
It's [N] not supposed to be that hard.
It is difficult, but nobody said it was easy.
This life isn't easy.

[Bm] [Em]
[C]
[G] [Em]
[B] But my cries, [C] they seem almost [Am] unforgivable.
I [B] give in to sin, [C] because you had to make this life [D] livable.
[B] But maybe it's not bad enough to see us love, [C] take one another, [A] remember, [B] yes or no, let it [D] get out.
