Intro 

Em G C G C 
 

[Verso 1]

Em              C 
One time weekly rate 
G             D 
12 by 12 foot room 
Em                   C 
Strapped down to the bed 
    G              D 
Now pump up the valium 
 

[Ponte]

Em G              Em 
My mind is wide asleep 
   D          C     Em 
My conscience keep awake 
    G          Em 
The promises I keep 
    D       C      Em 
Are not the ones I make 


[Refrão]

  Am 
I count the caustic causes 
  Am              G 
I lost count of regrets 
     Am 
A surplus of good intentions 
                          G 
Don't provide me with content 
    C              G            D 
All I want is just a little content

[Verso 2]

Em               C 
One time monthly rate 
G                  D 
Still no breathing room 
Em                  C 
Pressure's building up 
    G             D 
So pump up the valium 

 

[Ponte]

Em G                Em 
I choose the beaten path 
     D       C        Em 
I've been to where it leads 
    G             Em 
Why I keep coming back 
  D     C    Em 
A mystery to me 

 

[Refrão]

  Am 
I found what I've been seeking 
         Am             G 
It's too late for me to care 
   Am 
My aspiration's leaking 
                    G 
From a hole I can't repair 
C             G               D 
Maybe I just don't want it repaired
