This is hell, this is hell, I am sorry to tell you
D A Em7 AIt never gets better or worse
D A G EmBut you get used to it, after a spell
For heaven is hell in reverse
The bruiser spun a hula hoop
D/AAs all the barmen preen and pout
GThe neon "I" of "night club" flickers
On an off and finally blew out
Am CThe irritating jingle of the belly dancing phoney turkish girl
AmThe eerie glare of ultraviolet perfect dental work
D A G Em
This is hell, I am sorry to tell you
It never gets better or worse
D A G EmBut you get used to it, after a spell
D A Cadd9For heaven is hell in reverse
G
The failed Don Juan in the big bow-tie
Is very sorry that he spoke
GFor heīs mislaid his punchline more than
D/A CHalfway through a very tasteless joke
The Fräulein caught him peeking down her gown
CHeīs yelling in her ear
AmAnd all at once the music stopped
As he was intimately bellowing "My dear..."
This is hell, this is hell, I am sorry to tell you
D A Em7 AIt never gets better or worse
D A G EmBut you get used to it, after a spell
For heaven is hell in reverse
The shirt you wore with courage
C FAnd the violent nylon suit
Dm GReappear upon your back
And undermine the polished line
Dm GYou try to shoot, itīs not the torment
C F DOf the flames that finally see your flesh corrupted
Itīs the small humiliation that your memory piles up
Em7 DThis is hell, this is hell
G D
"My favourite thing" is playing again an again
G DBut itīs by Julie Andrews and not by John Coltrane
Endless balmy breezes and perfect sunsets framed
G D CVintage wine for breakfast and naked starlets floating in Champagne
AmAll the passions of your youth
Are tranquilised and tamed
AmYou may think it looks familiar
AThough you may know it by another name
D A G Em
This is hell, this is hell, I am sorry to tell you
It never gets better or worse
D A G EmBut you get used to it, after a spell
D A Cadd9For heaven is hell in reverse
This is hell, this is hell.
