Intro: Em G
verse 1
Em G
Emerging from the aftershow with eyes like piss holes in the snow
Em G
Midnight's mirror has revealed what the morning keeps concealed
Em G
Opulence and Chintz decor are wasted on those about to score
Em
Talking to the pig in boots
G
She's your friend when she wants some more
Pre-Chorus
D
So I said to myself
Em
"Well well
C
You fell
D
Down the same hole again
D
Now you're your only friend"
[Refrão]
G Em
I'm like a shadow you can't shake
C Am
From the warmups to the aftershow
G Em
This is the dream into which I'll wake
C Am
There's no limit to the low
Em G
verse 2
Em
If a blizzard blows inside a well
G
Does it leave a mark you can't dispel?
Em
Still the day after the night before
G
Resolve is never less, it's more
Pre-Chorus
D
So I said to myself
Em
"Well well
C
You fell
D
Down the same hole again
D
Now you're your only friend
D
Down the same hole again
D
Now you're your only friend"
[Refrão]
G Em
I'm like a shadow you can't shake
C Am
From the warmups to the aftershow
G Em
No matter how little or much I take
C Am
There's no limit to the low
G Em
I'm always here when the lights come up
C Am
And there's nowhere else to go
G Em
Just like a record that gets stuck
C Am
I re-live it blow by blow
Outro: G Em C Am
