                E -------------------3-h-5-p-3-h-5-p-3-h-5-p-3-h-5

E
Sipping whiskey from a pager cup.
        C
You drown your sorrows till you can't stand up.
E
Take a look at what you've done to yourself.
C                                                            D
Why don't you put the bottle back on the shelf.
E
Yellow fingered from your cigarettes.
        C
Your hands are shakin' while your body sweats.
E
You work all night, you sleep all day.
        C
You take your money and throw it all away.

Chorus:
E                                             D                      A
Why don't you look into Jesus, look into Jesus, look into Jesus,
        C2                        D
You know He's got the answer.

E
H.I.V. on Valentines Day.
        C
And you're still lookin' for the perfect lay.
E
You think that rock and roll will set you free.
            C
Honey-you'll be deaf before you're 33.
E
Shooting junk till you're half insane.
    C
A broken needle in your purple vein.
E
You say you're gonna be a superstar,
C                                                                    D
but you never really found out who you really are.

Repeat Chorus

Solo:  Same chords as chorus.

E
Thinking back when you were a child.
D
Your soul was free and you heart ran wild.
A
Things have changed, you're older now.
C2                                    D
If you're unhappy and you don't know how.

Chorus

        Pretty much the same as the intro.
