Gypsy Rock, that is, flamenco chords and big back-beat drums

lyrics

Bitter Pill © 2002, 2011 Henry Wallace Stopher, ℗ Millennium Foghorn Music 2018

He wrote her a letter
He said everything in it he wanted to say
Then he burned it all to ashes
Well, she didn't want to read it anyway

Everything he never
Said to her and now he never will
It's another medicine day
He takes the bitter pill

BRIDGE
He stood in the corner
There was no one there to see him cry
He cried 'til he was empty
He lit the sun
He let the river run
Dry

He looked at her pictures
He remembered all the things she used to say
How it left him baffled
Well, she didn't tell him anything anyway

MIDDLE BIT
I just can't take it anymore
I just can't take it anymore
Don't bother knocking at my door
Don't bother knocking at my door

BRIDGE
He sat in the corner
There was no one there to hear him cry
He cried 'til he was empty
He lit the sun
He let the river run
Dry
