THE HELL OF IT
(Paul Williams)
-From the 'Phantom of the Paradise' soundtrack.
E
Roll on thunder, shine on lightning
Am
The days are long and the nights are frightenin'
C
Nothing matters anyway,
G D Am
And that's the hell of it.
E
Winter comes and the winds blew colder
Am
While some grew wiser, you just grew older
C
And you never listened anyway,
G D Am
And that's the hell of it.
G
Good for nothing, bad in bed
G
Nobody likes you and you're better off dead
C E C
Goodbye (Goodbye!), we've all come to say goodbye (Goodbye!),
E
Goodbye (Goodbye!).
G
Born defeated, died in vain
G
Super-destructive, you were hooked on pain
C E
Though your music lingers on
C E
All of us are glad you're gone
Bm C G
If I could live my life half as worthlessly as you
Bm C E D Am
I'm convinced that I'd wind up burning too.
E
Love yourself as you loved no other
Am
Be no man's fool and be no man's brother
C G
We're all born to die alone, you know, that's the hell of it.
E
Life's a game where they're bound to beat you
Am
And time's a trick it can turn to cheat you
C
And we only waste it anyway,
G
And that's the hell of it.
G
Good for nothing, bad in bed
G
Nobody likes you and you're better off dead
C E C
Goodbye (Goodbye!), we've all come to say goodbye (Goodbye!),
E
Goodbye (Goodbye!).
G
Born defeated, died in vain
G
Super-destructive, you were hooked on pain
C E
Though your music lingers on
C E
All of us are glad you're gone
Bm C G
If I could live my life half as worthlessly as you
Bm C E
I'm convinced that I'd wind up burning too.

I think it was a shame that this song wasn't yet in UG, so, though I'm an awful
guitar player (and, as you can see, an awful english speaker as well), I tried to
get the chords...
And, well, here it is, my first tab. Don't be rough, I'M A BABY!
As you'll see, it's easy as hell, so...
Enjoy (if you can).
