We go drinking from time to time and I find it gets harder every time

Hey there Salinger what did you do
C Dm
Just when the world was looking at you
Dm F
To write anything that meant anything
C Dm
You told us you were through
Dm F
And it's been years since you passed away
C Dm
But I see no plaque and I see no grave
Dm F C Dm
And I can't help believing you wanted it that way
Dm F
And Vincent Van Gogh why do you weep
C Dm
You were on your way to heaven but the road was steep
Dm F
And who was there to break your fall
C Dm
We're guilty one and all
Dm F
And I don't know much but I do know this
C Dm
With a golden heart comes a rebel fist
Dm F C Dm
But I can't help agreeing with those that would not quit

All my heroes that could not live with this

And you changed my life
A
But I draw the line at suicide
