[Verse 1]
Em Am
Well standing at the peak, looking to the bottom
Em B
All falls down watching summer turn autumn
Em Am
Autumn comes cold, cold comes winter
Em B Em B7
Everyday's a struggle just to stomach my dinner
[Verse 2]
Em Am
Well nickel in my pocket, burning up a hole
Em B
Sell another ticket just to watch it burn slow
Em Am
Slow comes quicker, liquor runs dry
Em B Em
Drying off my boots to deliver my high
Am Em
Needle and a blue
B7 Em
Needle and a blue
Em B7
Needle and a blue

[Verse 3]
Em Am
Now I'm standing in the kitchen lookin at the sky
Em B
Sky's too low for me to even try to fly
Em Am
Flying in a box never worked well
Em B Em Am Em B
The well's dried up, no water for sale
[Verse 4]
Em Am
So now I'm drowning in a bathtub, tryna get clean
Em B
Cleaned up quick but the dirt is so mean
Em Am
Kicked me up a cloud, waited for the rain
Em B Em
Only rained five minutes then it slithered down the drain
Am Em
Needle and a blue
B7 Em
Needle and a blue
Em B7
Needle and a blue

[Verse 5]
Em Am
Well either way you run, you can't run too far
Em B
The key's all crooked but you're looking through the bars
Em Am
Bar's too high, so when you come down
Em B Em Am Em B7
All you've got left is a lonesome sound
Em Am
Bar's too high, so when you come down
Em B
All you've got left is a lonesome sound
