Meth Head

          Dm                      
I saw him down in a dump, hurlin' 
F
armloads of junk
       Am                   G
into a pickup bound for the yard.
       Dm                          
He was skittish and strange like a 
F
wild dog with mange
              G                    
and there was blood where his veins
     Dm
 ran hard.

[Verse 2]
       Dm                        
Wadin' deep through the grime, he 
         F
found a long copper line,
        Am                         
then he jumped up and leaped to the
 G
 ground.
          Dm                       
And you'd thought he'd struck gold,
            F
 the way he kicked and he rolled
           G                      
and like a bandit, he tore outta' 
Dm
town.

[Chorus]
Dm                F
  Whoa, now, he's out on the prowl,
           Am                
you better get up and go back 
   G
inside.
            Dm                
'Cause he's loose on the land, 
         F
gettin' all that he can
          Am                  G
and there won't be nowhere to hide.
           Dm                      
Yeah, he's crawling his way to that
 F
 fix for the day,
          Am                       
you won't stop him, he's bent to be
 G
 fed.
         Dm                     
He's the low-heathen kind with a 
 F
shit-mangled mind,
    G          F
the desperate, fucking meth 
[Interlude] head.

[Verse 3]
            Dm                  
There was a girl, tall and thin, 
      F
with scabulous skin,
         Am                    
inside a rest stop I won't soon 
    G
forget.
        Dm                         
She was diggin' at a rash, trying 
  F
to deal for some cash,
       G                      Dm
sayin' baby I'm clean and I'm wet.

[Verse 4]
       Dm             F
I just kept pacin' by swattin' 
through the flies
        Am                 G
and her stench, rancid and stout.
          Dm                       
While she stood their cryin' please
          F
 with her fist between her knees
        G                        
and the sores drainin' round her 
Dm
mouth.

[Chorus]
Dm                  F
  Whoah, now, she's out on the 
prowl,
           Am                
you better get up and go back 
   G
inside.
             Dm                
'Cause she's loose on the land, 
         F
getting all that she can
          Am                  G
and there won't be nowhere to hide.
             Dm                    
Yeah, she'll bum and she'll beg and
        F
 she'll gnaw at your leg,
          Am                      
you can't kill her, she's already 
G
dead.
          Dm                 
She's the empty-eyed soul the 
 F
zombie-like foe,
    G        F
the feening, fuckin meth [Interlude]
 head.

[Verse 5]
         Dm                        
It'll be dark pretty soon, they 
     F
love to lurk by the moon,
        Am                     G
so, I'm out back shoveling the dirt.
           Dm               F
I'm gonna' dig me a hole as deep as 
I can go
              G                    
and when they fall I'm gonna' cover
     Dm
 'em up.

[End-Chorus]
Dm                 F
  Oh, now, they're out on the prowl,
           Am                
you better get up and go back 
   G
inside.
             Dm                
'Cause their sweepin' the land, 
         F
getting all that they can,
          Am                  G
and there won't be nowhere to hide.
             Dm                    
They got the taste on their 
        F
tongues, their fates have been hung,
       Am                   G
it's a fever that's already spread.
     Dm                           
From out far and wide they're the 
F
fit to be tied,
    G          F
the worthless, fuckin' meth [Otro] 
head.
