Good times

Good times were all we had when we first started
The bad times came along the day we parted
Now we're swimming in a sea of p-p-pain and m-misery
I'm drowning in an ocean of our tears

I know we could have had good times together
Loving you and only you forever
But love appears to be at least as far as I can see
Strange without your chains and whips and leather

I guess I'm just another hard luck story
I do things for the love and not the glory
In the light, there is darkness In pleasure, there's pain
In opulence, a starkness, like a shadow, still remains

I picked up my favourite, battered, old acoustic
And tried to change the world with country music
but every song I sing, each three chord pointless thing,
Is a lonesome church bell ringing in a world without your love
