    G                           G7                 C
The widows of a lifetime keep a warning in their eye
    G                           G7             C
The widows of a lifetime can do anything but cry
                Bb       C        G
They never stop bleeding
    G                             G7               C
The pervert in the bushes and the dopefiend on the street
        G                                      G7             C
They've got one thing in common - they're both crying out for meat
                Bb       C        G
They never stop bleeding,
                C        Bb       G
They never stop bleeding

(instrumental, as verse)

I'm sorry for the future and I'm sorry for the past
I'm sorry for the sailor who is lashed before the mast
They never stop bleeding
Now you can bleed internally or you can bleed outside
The groom is always edgy when he's standing with the bride
They never stop bleeding, you never stop bleeding
