This Living Will Get You Dead

E         A
all alone again
E          A
he woke up screaming here
E             A         B
he needs more oxygen to breathe
(B)      A           E
help him up hold him down
(E)            A
like a freight train
E            A
it's bearing down again
E             A            B
he's got holy water in his lungs
         A
help him up

Chorus

F#5                      A
if that's how it's gonna be
E          B
wake me up wake me up
F#5             A
pump me full of meds
E            B
don't let me drink from that cup
F#5            A            E
slide a little pill down my throat
 B                  F#5
i'll try to keep it down
A                          
or pull my plug and don't be 
  B
frightened by the sound

Verse

E           A
seventy and ten
E            A
outlived the best of men
E           A              B
he wants to see his little kids 
again
A
help him up
E          A
but in all his years
E                A
the pain's never been this severe
E        A            B
now he's spiraling in fear
A
hold him down
