Intro: C#m-E-B-A- x2
Verse 1:
Click on the [C#m]link for
the world's bigges[E]t dick
You can s[B]mell the rats
are dying As the [A]ship
starts to sink Down
be[C#m]neath the poor are
em[E]braces and tears
[B]Up against the bars
s[A]taring down their years
[C#m]You told me to kiss you
because [E]we were at the end
And I [B]said I wouldn't miss
you because [A]baby, I'd be
dead And that's th[C#m]e only way
it seems that [E]I could get
away Other[B]wise I'm nothing
without [A]you babe [C#m]oh[E][B][A]
Verse 2:
I got a [C#m]bad sick stink
and I'[E]m bathing in the
sink At the [B]YMCA down the
s[A]treet from the clinic
And there's [C#m]a sad old man
with a [E]sad saggy ass
Just [B]crying under the
electric [A]dryer for your hands
And he'[C#m]s wet, and he's dying
and the s[E]piders on his nose
Seem to [B]indicate that he's been
keeping [A]warm out in the cold
And he's [C#m]a lot like me I guess
but we'r[E]e somehow not the same
They say you [B]really die the last
time any[A]body says your name
Interlude: C#m-E-B-A-C#m-E-B-A--
Chorus 1:
This [C#m]sweet and sticky [E]dream
was [A]nothing that I [B]needed
Just [C#m]demons to be[E]lieve and
poi[A]sons lined up to [B]feed them
And the [A]rings inside this
tree are [E]rotten deeper [B]down
God[A]damn this fucking town
It'[B]s restless and I'm drowning
Post Chorus: C#m-E-B-A- x2
Verse 3:
I got these [C#m]black rotten teeth
Cracking [E]off in bloody beef
And I [B]haven't seen the dentist
in at [A]least six thousand weeks
And I'[C#m]m high on this TV and
these [E]whiskeys and these dreams
That I [B]wouldn't dare to follow
because I [A]couldn't dare succeed
So I [C#m]write down shitty words
So I [E]sit in titty bars
So I [B]text and tweet and look
at nudes and [A]beat off in the
dark Back when [C#m]I was just a boy
These were [E]okay ways to go
But [B]baby I got old And
some[A]where I ditched my soul Oh
Interlude:
[C#m] [E] [B] [A]
[C#m-E-B-A--]
Chorus 2:
This [C#m]sweet and sticky [E]dream
was [A]nothing that I [B]needed
Just [C#m]demons to be[E]lieve and
poi[A]sons lined up to [B]feed them
And the [A]rings inside this
tree are [E]rotten deeper [B]down
God[A]damn this fucking town
It'[B--]s restless and I'm drowning
[C#m] [E] We [B]are the lonely [A]seeds
[C#m] [E] A[B]drift on burning [A]seas
[C#m] [E] Just [B]pour the goddamn
[A]round[C#m] [E] And let'[B]s let
A(hold) A B C#m(hold)
these fuckers drown
