When sadness fills [F] your _ heart, _ _ and sorrow hides [A] the longing to be [G] free _ _ _
_ [C] When things go wrong each _ [F] day, _ _ [Am] you fix your mind to escape your _ [G] misery _
_ _ Your [Am] troubled young life [C] had made you turn _ _ to a needle of [F] death
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
[G] How strange [C] your _ [F] happy _ words _ have [A] ceased to bring a smile from [G] everyone
_ _ How _
_ [C] _ tears have filled _ [F] the _ eyes of [Am] friends that you once had walked [G] among _ _
_ Your [Am] troubled young _ life [C] had made you _ turn _ to a needle [F] of death
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] One grain of pure _ _ _ [F]
white snow, _ _ _ [A] dissolved in blood, spread quickly to your [G] brain
_ _ _ [C] In peace your _ mind [F] _ _ _ _ withdraws, yet death so near your [Am] soul can feel no [G] _ pain

_ [Cm] _ Your father [C] stands [F] in _ silence, _ _ [Am] caressing every young dream of the _ _ [Gm]
past
Your [Am] troubled young _ life [C] had made you turn _ _ to a needle [F] of death
_ _ Through _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] ages _ man's [F] desire _ _ to free his [Am] mind, to release his very [G] soul _
Has _ [C] _ proved to all [F] who _ live, _ _ that [Am] death itself is freedom for _ [G] evermore
_ _ And your [Am] troubled young life will [C] _ make you _ _ turn to a needle [F] of death
