^'s And v's indicate strumming 
direction- ^ is down and v is up 
(makes sense)
The dead notes can be strummed as a 
part of the schord, but muting them 
makes
left hand transition easier


[Intro]
Am C G Gsus4  x4

Am
Met a fine red boned mami
                      C      
She told me that her name was 
  G      Gsus4
Lucille
Am
Met her on Fountain Avenue
                       C         
Sitting on the back of a Cadillac 
          G      Gsus4
Coupe De Ville
Am
She said, I'm a liar, a thief, I'm a
 junkie
     C              G    Gsus4
And I used to be a whore
Am
And I've been trying to shake this 
monkey o long
  C                       G     
I just can't take it no more
Gsus4


Am
She said I got a weakness
        C                G    Gsus4
I got a hunger, I got a jones
Am
I'm sick and I need to get well
 C                 G     Gsus4
I hurt deep in my bone
Am
And I got a weakness
        C                G     Gsus4
I got a fever, I got a thirst

Am
I'm sitting on the edge of the 
bubble
      C                  G       
Just waiting for it to burst

Am C G Gsus4 x2

Am
We talked all afternoon
             C                 G  
She made me cry, I told some jokes
  Gsus4

Am
She looked me deep in my eyes
            C                      
And told me love was nothing but a 
 G          Gsus4
cruel hoax
Am
Her grandmother died when she was 
five
        C                 G    Gsus4
And she never did know her folks
Am
Her father fell in a gun fight
         C              G    Gsus4
And her mother by an overdose

Am
She said I got a weakness
        C                G    Gsus4
I got a hunger, I got a jones
Am
I'm sick and I need to get well
   C               G     Gsus4
I hurt deep in my bones
Am
And I got a weakness
          C             G     Gsus4
I got a fever, I got a thirst
Am
I'm sitting on the edge of the 
bubble
       C                G       
Just waiting for it to burst

Am Asus2 Am Asus2 Am Asus2

                            Am
She said, I've slept with gangsters
                         C
Thugs and smugglers, congressman and
 governors
            Am
I've seen therapists and holy men
            C            G        
But this weakness is my only 
  Gsus4
friend
     Am
It feeds my need, it numbs my soul
    C
It starts to creep and take control
  Am
I sell my flesh, I pierce my skin
       C              G      Gsus4
And tomorrow I do it all again


Am
´Cause said I got a weakness
          C              G    Gsus4
I got a hunger, I got a jones
Am
I'm sick and I need to get well
   C               G     Gsus4
I hurt deep in my bone
Am
And I got a weakness
          C              G     Gsus4
I got a fever, I got a thirst
Am
I'm sitting on the edge of the 
bubble
        C                G       
Just waiting for it to burst
