[Intro]
F#m D F#m D
[Verse 1]
F#m
I’ve been hungry like a stray dog
D
In an old abandoned town
F#m
Went runnin’ just for runnin’ sake
D
Cuz I couldn’t settle down
F#m
I have dined with kings and princes,
D
Been granted all three wishes,
A E
That just left me wishin’ I had more
[Chorus]
Bm D
I - I keep tryin’ to get high,
A
But the need for satisfaction
E
Leaves me so unsatisfied
Bm D
I - I am a little more content
A
A little more content with
E
Who I am then who I was
Bm
And I have learned to love the comfort when it comes
Bm
Like a first cigarette in the mornin’ buzz
[Verse 2]
F#m
It takes a whole lot of movin’ on
D
To not be where you’ve been
F#m
I’ve got lessons on my shoulders
D
Where the Devil used to live
F#m
And as long as I’m confessin’
D
I’m more curse than I am blessin’
A E
But I can look at my reflection and see hope
[Chorus]
Bm D
I - I keep tryin’ to get high,
A
But the need for satisfaction
E
Leaves me so unsatisfied
Bm D
I - I am a little more content
A
A little more content with
E
Who I am then who I was
Bm
And I have learned to love the comfort when it comes
Bm
Like a first cigarette in the mornin’ buzz
[Solo]
