[Intro]
D
(embellish with g and a on the high e string)
 
 
[Verse 1]
D
Morning calls for pain relief,
G
A line above the step beneath
D                        A
The worst that you could do.
D                       G
The best that you could hope for,
              A
Is hardly the best.
 
D
Tepid water chase the pills
G
With turpentine and chamomile,
D                            A
And don't get cheap with the wine.
D                  G             A
You need to be up     all of the time.
 
[Chorus]
G                    A
Shield your eyes, conceal your lies.
Bm    A      G
Don't blink, everyone's watching.
Bm      A     G
They'll think you're up to something.
Bm   A        G
They need for you to be
Bm         A            G
Everything that they cannot
