Verse 1:
Ab                  Fm7                       
All these relief-givers 
                            Ab  Fm7       
The needle sure revs in the red 
Ab               Fm7                   
Chemicals like drugs 
                                      Ab   Fm7                   
They feel like they come best friend

You me a coward but I a warrior 
                        Ab  Fm7     
With many voices in my head 
Bbm                                Db                                       
When I looked around and I reached out 
                 Ab  Fm7    
I saw no alternative 
         
 
    Db     Fm7 Eb  Bbm       Ab  Fm7                          
And God rest,  God rest our souls

And this substance is the only comfort I know 
           Db            Fm7                          
He's been hurting for a while 
                 Eb       Bbm                          
Can we cut this man some slack 
             Ab           Fm7                              
Let him lie down, let him lie down 
          
Verse 1:
N.C.                 
We are a country 
                        Ab   Fm7                     
Desperate for the embryonic 
Ab                     
I'm cold and I'm hungry 
Fm7                                Ab   Fm7                                      
And I yearn for a hand on my forehead 
       
Pre-Chorus
Bbm                                         Db                                                
You think it's a walk in the park and it's easy 
                            Ab  Fm7 
She's got it as good as it gets 
Bbm                                       Db                                               
This misunderstanding's a line between living 
                     Ab  Fm7   
And being a walking dead 
           
 
    Db    Fm7 Eb     Bbm      Ab   Fm7                                     
And God rest, please rest our souls 
          Db    Fm7       Eb     Bbm     Ab   Fm7                                              
And the more I take, the less comfort I know 
           Db            Fm7                                
She's been pushing for a while 
                 Eb     Bbm                            
Can we cut this woman slack 
             Ab           Fm7                                     
Let her lie down, let her lie down 
        
 
 Ab                       Fm7                            
The more that you hurl at me 
                           Ab    Fm7            
The more I will curl up in my bed 
Ab                   Fm7                      
Where's the humanity? 
                       Ab                  Fm7                            
Aren't we all hovering around the same end? 
      
Pre-Chorus
Bbm                                    Db                                            
Door number 1, 2 and 3 have been promises 
                      Ab      Fm7  
That aren't enough to be kept 
Bbm                          Db                                
You wish me a speedy recovery 
                           Ab        Fm7       
But when you turn I plumb the depths 
    
 
    Db    Fm7 Eb          Bbm       Ab  Fm7                                          
And God rest, God please rest our souls 
            Db   Fm7 Eb     Bbm    Ab  Fm7                                      
This is the surest   exit I have known 
Db                        Fm7                               
We've been hurting for a while 
       Eb                 Bbm                         
Can we cut ourselves some slack 
            Ab              Fm7                             
Let us lie down, let us lie down 
            Ab              Fm7                             
Let us lie down, let us lie down
