Glasses full of rye

All the news is bad   again so

Kiss your dreams goodbye

All the sad young men    sitting in the bars

Knowing neon nights  missing  all the stars
Sol7+              Do7/9  Fa#m7                  Si7/9
All the sad young men    drifting through the town

Drinking up the night   trying not to   drown

All the sad young men singing in the cold
Sol/C        Sibm6   Lam7                Re7/9
Trying to forget that they're growing old

All the sad young men   choking on their worth
             Sol7+  Fa#m7 Mim7     La7      Re7+ Sol7+ Fa#m Mim La7 (2x)
Trying to be brave,   running from the truth
Re7+             Sol7+   Fa#m7
Autumm turns the leaves gold
Mim7             La7
Slowly dies the heart
Re7+              Sol7+    Fa#m7
Sad young men are growing old
    Mim7         La7     Re7+
And that's the cruelest part
Sol7+              Sol#dim Lam7           Sibdim
All the sad young men  seek a certain smile
Sol/C         Sibm6      Lam7         Re7/9
Someone they can hold for a little while
Sol7+         Do7/9 Fa#m7               Si7/9
Tired little girl  does the best she can
             Sol7+ Fa#m7     Mim7  La7  Re7+
Trying to be gay  for her sad young man
Sol7+            Sol#dim   Lam7         Sibdim
While the grimy moon   watches from above
Sol/C              Sibm6  Lam7           Re7/9
All the sad young men  play of making love
Sol7+        Do7/9  Fa#m                  Si7/9
Misbegotten moon   shine for sad young men
          Sol7+  Fa#m               Sol7+    Fa#m
Let your gentle light guide them home tonight
Sol7+  Fa#m  Mim     La7    Re7+
All   the sad   young   men
