I try and feel the sunshine, you bring the rain
~#**************#~
You try and hold me down with your complaints
~#**************#~
You cry and moan and complain, you whine and tear
~#**************#~
Up to my neck in sorrow the touch you bring
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus: Izzy Stradlin]
~#**************#~
You just dont step inside to, to fourteen years
~#**************#~
So hard to keep my own head, thats what I say and you know
~#**************#~
Ive been the beggar, Ive played the thief
~#**************#~
I was the dog they all tried to beat
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Izzy Stradlin & Axl Rose, Axl Rose]
~#**************#~
But its been fourteen years of silence, ιts been fourteen years of pain
~#**************#~
Its been fourteen years that are gone forever and Ill never have again, well
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Izzy Stradlin]
~#**************#~
Your stupid girlfriends tell you, that Im to blame
~#**************#~
Well, theyre all used up has-beens out of the game
~#**************#~
This time Ill have the last word, you hear what I say?
~#**************#~
I tried to see it your way, it wont work today
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus: Izzy Stradlin]
~#**************#~
You just dont step inside to, to fourteen years
~#**************#~
So hard to keep my own head, thats what I say, you know
~#**************#~
Ive been the dealer hangin on your street
~#**************#~
I was the dog they all tried to beat
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Izzy Stradlin & Axl Rose, Axl Rose]
~#**************#~
But its been fourteen years of silence, ιts been 14 years of pain
~#**************#~
Its been fourteen years that are gone forever and Ill never have again, well
~#**************#~
[Guitar Solo]
~#**************#~
Yeah, its been nada
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: Izzy Stradlin]
~#**************#~
Bullshit and contemplation, gossips their trade
~#**************#~
If they knew half the real truth, what would they say?
~#**************#~
Well Im past the point of concern, its time to play
~#**************#~
These last four years of madness sure put me straight
~#**************#~
[Outro: Izzy Stradlin]
~#**************#~
You dont get back fourteen years in just one day
~#**************#~
So hard to keep my own head, just go away, you know
~#**************#~
Just like a hooker, she said, “Nothin for free”
~#**************#~
Oh, I tried to see it your way, I tried to see it your way
