          F         C          Am          G 
Well I've ruined my voice from smoking and drinking 
       F           C              Am            G 
On the weekends at night hell you know what I'm thinking 
    F          C           Am     G 
The hole in my soul that I have incurred 
            F         C                Am         G 
Is from the sleepless nights that I've spent in a blur 
            F       C                Am   G 
She told me baby everything is gunna be alright 
       F          C                     Am       G 
If you promise not to push it then I'll hold you tight 
          F          C                 Am         G 
Wheeling, dealing, persevering out the back of my trunk 
            F            C              Am          G 
And now its over and I'm looking like a high school punk 


[Refrão]

F                    C    G 
The spiral is on its way down 
F                          C        G 
And I am screaming but not making a sound 
F                       C        G 
I need and answer but I ain't profound 
F                                 C           G 
I fell through the bottom but not hitting the ground 
        F  C  Am  G 
I'm a degenerate 
        F  C  Am  G 
I'm a degenerate! 
         F  C  Am  G 
Just a degenerate 
         F  C  Am 
Just a degenerate 


[Verso 2]

 
          F              C          Am             G 
Well I've killed all the willing, embraced all the wicked 
        F            C            Am          G 
I had a train out of town but you know that I missed it 
      F                C             Am       G 
I got caught up in the hunt for a conspicuous jewel 
          F              C           Am       G 
I found a diamond in the rough but I ain't no fool 
   F            C            Am        G 
Educated with a promise to a certain degree 
               F      C          Am      G 
But I couldn't find a job out of university 
        F          C            Am     G 
All the vocational training and my bad luck 
             F                 C            Am       G 
I'm flipping burgers, stealing buns off the delivery truck

     Won't you see me now 
F C Am          G              F  C  Am  G 
     I’ll cross the bridge somehow 
F C Am G
