E
Mother I don't wanna take my medicine
E A
24 years in the gutter again, I'm losing it
A
I'm losing it
E
Everybody's acting like they're all alright
E
I can barely get myself to sleep at night,
A
I'm sick of it, yeah, I'm sick of it
[Chorus]
E A
Yeah, they sent the taxman, I lost my job, and You got hooked on oxycodone
A
They shut the lights off, They took the car, and I bought a sawed-off shotgun
E A
Yeah, they sent the taxman, I lost my job, and You got hooked on oxycodone
A
They shut the lights off, They took the car, and I bought a sawed-off shotgun
[Verse 2]
(For verse 2, recommend picking individual notes of the E and A chords where you see them)
E
I'd rather be crazy than to take these pills
E
I'm sick of being okay against my will
A
I'm losing it, I'm losing it
E
Ain't a thing in this world that I'm gonna miss
E
It's all fake smiles and leather jackets
A
We're full of it, yeah we're full of shit
[Bridge]
F#m E A
I don't know who to trust
[Chorus 2]
E A
Yeah, they sent the taxman, I lost my job, and You got hooked on oxycodone
A
They shut the lights off, They took the car, and I bought a sawed-off shotgun
E A
Yeah, they sent the taxman, I lost my job, and You got hooked on oxycodone
A
They shut the lights off, They took the car, and I bought a sawed-off shotgun
