F#

I don't care about the state of my hair

B

I get something out of nothing that just wasn't there

F# E F#

And your kiss kiss kiss is never gonna blow me away

F#

Dreams of escape keep me awake

B

I'm never gonna get out and make it away

F# E F#

I'm a stone dead tripper dying in a fantasy

B

Like a cracked open sky it helps you to die

F#

Don't split it, scrape it - you're screamin automatic pain

E

You're too young kid you're gonna get hit

F#

Looks like you're never gonna make it off the government list

Chord instrumental:

B C# E (barre) B F#

Repeat intro

F#

I don't mind about the state of my mind

B

But you know it's good for nothing and I left you behind

F# B F#

It's a sick sick city but it's never gonna make me insane

F#

If you're talking for real then go cut a deal

B

You're facing up to living out the way that you feel

F# B F#

And you shake shake shake cuz you know you'll never make it away

B

Like a cracked open sky it helps you to die

F#

Don't split it, scrape it - you're screamin automatic pain

E

You're too young kid you're gonna get hit

F#

Looks like you're never gonna make it off the government list

Well I guess that's why I've always got the blues

Yeah I guess that's why I've always got the blues
