[VERSE 1]
Life has been unfaithful
And it all promised so so much
I am a relic
I am just a petrified cry
[PRE-CHORUS]
C5                      D5 Eb5   (F#5)  main riff
Wheeled out once a year a cenotaph souvenir
C5                      D5 Eb5   (F#5) 
The applause nails down my silence
[CHORUS] (under main riff/implied)
Gmaj7  C/G   Gmaj7 C/G     Gmaj7   C/G  Gmaj7 C/G
La tristesse durera   scream to a sigh to a sigh
Gmaj7  C/G   Gmaj7 C/G     Gmaj7   C/G  Gmaj7 C/G   D5
La tristesse durera scream to a sigh to a sigh
[VERSE 2]
I see liberals
I am just a fashion accessory
People send postcards
And they all hope I'm feeling well
 
[PRE CHORUS]
I retreat into self-pity, it's so easy
Where they patronise my misery
 
REPEAT CHORUS

[VERSE 3]
I sold my medal
It paid a bill
It sells at market stalls
Parades Milan catwalks
Oh, the sadness will never go
Will never go away
Baby it's here to stay
La tristesse durera
Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
