All these relief-givers
(strum)G6/9 Emadd9
The needle sure revs in the red
G6/9 Emadd9 Chemicals like hugs from G6/9 Emadd9 inside they feel like my best friend
[Pre-Chorus]
Am7 Cadd9 You think me a coward but I am a warrior G6/9 Emadd9 With many voices in my he-ad Am7 Cadd9 When I looked around and I reached out G6/9 Emadd9 I saw no alternative
[Chorus]
Am7 Em D Am7 G6/9 Emadd9 And God rest, God rest our souls Am7 Em D Am7 G6/9 Emadd9 And this substance is the only comfort I know Am7 Em He's been hurting for a while D Am7 Can we cut this man some slack G6/9 Emadd9 Let him lie down, let him lie dow-o-own
[Verse 2]
G6/9 Emadd9
N.C.
We are a country
G6/9 Emadd9 that's desperate for the embr y onic G6/9 Emadd9 I'm cold and I'm hungry Emadd9 G6/9 Emadd9 And I yearn for a hand on my forehead
[Pre-Chorus]
Am7 Cadd9 You think it's a walk in the park and it's easy G6/9 Emadd9 She's got it as good as it gets Am7 Cadd9 This misunderstanding's a line between living G6/9 Emadd9 And being the walking dead
[Chorus]
Am7 Em D Am7 G6/9 Emadd9 And God rest, please rest our souls Am7 Em D Am7 G6/9 Emadd9 And the more I take, the less comfort I know Am7 Em She's been pushing for a while D Am7 Can we cut this woman slack G6/9 Emadd9 Let her lie down, let her lie down
[Verse 3]
G6/9 Emadd9 The more that you hurl at me G6/9 Emadd9 The more I will curl up in my bed G6/9 Emadd9 Where's the humanity? G6/9 Emadd9 Aren't we all hovering around the same end?
[Pre-Chorus]
Am7 Cadd9 Door number 1, 2 and 3 have been promises G6/9 Emadd9 That aren't enough to be kept Am7 Cadd9 You wish me a speedy recovery G6/9 Emadd9 But when you turn I plumb the depths
[Chorus]
Am7 Em D Am7 G6/9 Emadd9 And God rest, God please rest our souls Am7 Em D Am7 G6/9 Emadd9 This is the surest ex-it I have known Am7 Em We've been hurting for a while D Am7 Can we cut ourselves some slack G6/9 Emadd9 Let us lie down, let us lie down G6/9 Em9 Let us lie down, let me lie down
