["Cindy's On Methadone"]
[Intro]
[A] Cindy's on [D]methadone, she's [B]through with the sy[E]ringe
A D B E (with slides from D#)
Cindy's on methadone, she's off of heroin
[Verse]
[A] Cindy is [D]doing well, we're [B]glad to have her [E]home
[A] She slept in [D]vomit, now she [B]sleeps on metha[E]done
[Chorus]
But she [D]stopped ripping [A]off her [E]neighbors
[D]Stopped taking [A]change from [E]strangers
[D]Stopped shooting [A]needles [E]full of [D]dreams into her [E]arms
[Verse]
Cindy's on methadone, we see it in her eyes
Sounds so much better but it's just another high
[Chorus]
But she stopped calling at three-thirty
Stopped looking thin and dirty
Stopped screaming bloody murder when she got cut off
[ A / D / B / E ] x2 (with lead A)
Why don't you [D]stop with your [A]fake so[E]lutions
[D]Stop covering [A]up the [E]truth and
[D]Stop trying to [A]make things [E]smooth and
[D]Stop acting [A]like she's [E]stupid
[ A / D / B / E ] x4 to end (with lead B)
