[Verse]

E                               D
I see your phone's been cut off again 
E                                      D
did you shoot all your troubles up the vein
A
someone saw you 
A                    E
said you were deadly pale 
C                D
another night in hell
                 E 
another night in jail 


[Chorus]

C                                     G
looks like the chinaman's reelin' you in
                               D
looks like the horses is gonna win 
D
looks like the monkeys 
               E
are holding on tight
E
say hello to darkness 
        C
goodbye light
    E
painkiller 


[Verse]

E                            D
and as obscurity beckons the call
E                             D
it seems oblivion is the only thing to cushion your fall 
A
I believe that everything 
A               E
is gonna be too late 
C
it all sinks along 
         D                 E
with the ship you chose to hate 


[Chorus]

C                                     G
looks like the chinaman's reelin' you in
                               D
looks like the horses is gonna win 
D
looks like the monkeys 
               E
are holding on tight
E
say hello to darkness 
        C
goodbye light
    E
painkiller
