Everybody’s high on consolation
Everybody’s trying to tell me what is right for me.
My daddy tried to bore me with a sermon
But it’s plain to see that they can’t comfort me.
Sorry, Charlie, for the imposition
I think I got it,
I got the strength to carry on.
I need a drink and a quick decision
Now it’s up to me, ooh, what will be.
[Chorus]
She’s gone, she’s gone,
Oh I, oh I, I better learn how to face it.
She’s gone, she’s gone
Oh I, oh I, I’d pay the devil to replace her
She’s gone, and she’s gone
Oh why, what went wrong?
[Verse 2]
Get up in the morning, look in the mirror.
One less toothbrush hanging in the stand.
My face ain’t looking any younger
Now I can see love’s taken a toll on me.
[Chorus]
She’s gone, she’s gone,
Oh I, oh I, I better learn how to face it.
She’s gone, she’s gone
Oh I, oh I, I’d pay the devil to replace her.
She’s gone, and she’s gone
Oh why, what went wrong?
[Verse 3]
Think I’ll spend eternity in the city.
Let the carbon and monoxide choke my thoughts away.
And pretty bodies help dissolve the memories.
They can never be what she was to me.
[Chorus]
She’s gone, she’s gone,
Oh I, oh I, I better learn how to face it.
She’s gone, she’s gone
Oh I, oh I, I’d pay the devil to replace her
She’s gone, and she’s gone,
Oh why, what went wrong?
[Final Chorus]
She’s gone
Oh I, I better learn how to face it.
She’s gone, she’s gone.
I can’t believe that she’s gone,
Oh I, I’d pay the devil to replace her
She’s gone
Oh I, I better learn how to face it.
She’s gone, she’s gone,
I can’t believe that she’s gone
Oh I, I’d pay the devil to replace her,
She’s gone, she’s gone
She’s gone, she’s gone
She’s gone, she’s gone
