Am                                                       E5 G5
  I need ... a shot of love, I need ... a shot of love
[Verse 1]
      Am
Don’t need a shot of heroin to kill my disease

      Am                                             E5  G5
Don’t need a shot of turpentine, only bring me to my knees

      Am
Don’t need a shot of codeine to help me to repent

      Am
Don’t need a shot of whiskey, help me be president

Doctor, can you hear me? I need some Medicaid

           Am                                             E5  G5
I seen the kingdoms of the world and it’s makin’ me feel afraid

Am
What I got ain’t painful, it’s just bound to kill me dead

         Am
Like the men that followed Jesus when they put a price upon His head

I don’t need no alibi when I’m spending time with you

     Am                                              E5  G5
I’ve heard all of them rumors and you have heard ’em too

Am
Don’t show me no picture show or give me no book to read

         Am
It don’t satisfy the hurt inside nor the habit that it feeds
[Chorus]
         D    C  Am
I need a shot of love

         D    C  | Am | Am   E5 G5 |

Am
 Why would I want to take your life?

       Am                                      E5  G5
You’ve only murdered my father, raped his wife

Am
 Tattooed my babies with a poison pen

Am
 Mocked my God, humiliated my friends
[Chorus]

I need a shot of love

 Don’t wanna be with nobody tonight

  Am                                E5  G5
Veronica not here, Mavis just ain’t right

          Am
There’s a man that hates me and he’s swift, smooth and near

   Am
Am I supposed to set back and wait until he’s here?
[Chorus]
         D    C  Am
I need a shot of love

         D    C  | Am | Am   E5 G5 |
I need a shot of love

 What makes the wind wanna blow tonight?

Don’t even feel like crossing the street and my car ain’t actin’ right

Called home, everybody seemed to have moved away

Am
My conscience is beginning to bother me today

Am
 I need  ... (a shot of love)

Am
 I need  ... (a shot of love)

Am
 I need  ... (a shot of love)

Am                                    | Am | Am   E5 G5 |
 If you’re a doctor, I need a shot of love     (fade out)
