[Intro] Ab Fm7 [Verse 1]
Ab                  Fm7
All these relief-givers

                            Ab  Fm7
The needle sure revs in the red

Ab               Fm7
Chemicals like hugs from

                                      Ab   Fm7
inside they feel like  my best friend
[Pre-chorus]
Bbm                                 Db
You think me a coward but I am a warrior

                        Ab  Fm7
With many voices in my head

Bbm                                Db
When I looked around and I reached out

                 Ab  Fm7
I saw no alternative
[Chorus]
    Db     Fm7 Eb  Bbm       Ab  Fm7
And God rest,  God rest our souls

         Db    Fm7         Eb    Bbm      Ab  Fm7
And this substance is the only comfort I know

           Db            Fm7
He's been hurting for a while

                 Eb       Bbm
Can we cut this man some slack

             Ab           Fm7
Let him lie down, let him lie down
[Verse 2] N.C. We are a country
                        Ab   Fm7
that spread1\\ for the embryonic

Ab
I'm cold and I'm hungry

Fm7                                Ab   Fm7
And I yearn for a hand on my forehead
[Pre-chorus]
Bbm                                         Db
You think it's a walk in the park and it's easy

                            Ab  Fm7
She's got it as good as it gets

Bbm                                       Db
This misunderstanding's a line between living

                     Ab  Fm7
And being a walking dead
[Chorus]
    Db    Fm7 Eb     Bbm      Ab   Fm7
And God rest, please rest our souls

          Db    Fm7       Eb     Bbm     Ab   Fm7
And the more I take, the less comfort I know

           Db            Fm7
She's been pushing for a while

                 Eb     Bbm
Can we cut this woman slack

             Ab           Fm7
Let her lie down, let her lie down
[Verse 3]
 Ab                       Fm7
The more that you hurl at me

                           Ab    Fm7
The more I will curl up in my bed

Ab                   Fm7
Where's the humanity?

                       Ab                  Fm7
Aren't we all hovering around the same end?
[Pre-chorus]
Bbm                                    Db
Door number 1, 2 and 3 have been promises

                      Ab      Fm7
That aren't enough to be kept

Bbm                          Db
You wish me a speedy recovery

                           Ab        Fm7
But when you turn I plumb the depths
[Chorus]
    Db    Fm7 Eb          Bbm       Ab  Fm7
And God rest, God please rest our souls

            Db   Fm7 Eb     Bbm    Ab  Fm7
This is the surest   exit I have known

Db                        Fm7
We've been hurting for a while

       Eb                 Bbm
Can we cut ourselves some slack

            Ab              Fm7
Let us lie down, let us lie down

            Ab              Fm7
Let us lie down, let us lie down
