Intro: G B G D A Em G Em B 
 
 
verse 1: 
 
 
D               B 
As I breathe my disease brings me to my knees 
                                        G 
All you need is a taste it'll set you free 
                    B                             G 
Your infection's my discretion honey, one and the same 
                        B                        D 
Counting second til I'm medicated, fucked in the brain 
 
 
D       B         D            G          G 
I don't want this baby, I just need it to carry on 
 
B                                 G            D   F#m 
I got the white line fever and an appetite for sin 
             B                     G                       D 
If there's a black hole headed for hell then baby count me in (whoa) 
B              G            D                               F#m     B 
I sold my soul so long ago, a bullet in the chamber with nowhere to go 
                                             G             D   B     
If there's a black hole headed for hell then baby count me in (yeah) 
 
 
verse 2: 
 
 
          Em   B 
I sold my soul 
 
B 
Licking every drop of poison off a pocket of keys 
D                         C#m             B 
While some daddy's little angel's getting dirt on her knees 
         D        B 
When the sun goes down the filth run free 
B 
You'll never find a finer specimen of filth than me 
 
 
B                 D C#m B 
I don't want this,       
B                 D F#m  
I just need this  
   G     D 
To carry on 
 
 
B                                 G            D   F#m 
I got the white line fever and an appetite for sin 
             B                     G                       D         F#m 
If there's a black hole headed for hell then baby count me in (whoa) 
B              G            D                               F#m     B 
I sold my soul so long ago, a bullet in the chamber with nowhere to go 
                                             G             D

Bridge: 
 
 
B                           D              C#m 
Some have said that I'm the devil and it's just as well cause 
B                     D 
I've been through and burned down and rebuilt hell 
        B                     D 
With my heart in a vice and a knife in my back 
           G             D              A        B 
I've got a noose for the world that I'm painting black 
 
F#m G D A Em G Em 
 
B                                 G            D   F#m 
I got the white line fever and an appetite for sin 
             B                     G                       D         F#m 
If there's a black hole headed for hell then baby count me in (whoa) 
B              G            D                               F#m     B 
I sold my soul so long ago, a bullet in the chamber with nowhere to go 
                                             G             D   Em D B   
If there's a black hole headed for hell then baby count me in
