[Verse 1]
D               F#m    G
The dog days of August
D                A       Bm
And a feeling of being awake
Bm            G          (D)
Oh my God, my whole damn world's
G               A       (D)
Hotel walls and mind decay

D          F#m       G
How come I never got used to
D               A             Bm
The feeling of sleeping in a cage?
Bm                G        (D)
Too long driving, too damn hungry
  G                 A
A tied-up hound but nothing stays


[Chorus]
D                  F#m    G
Never swam a river wider, wider
D                         A  Bm
Couldn't climb a building taller
Bm                   G      (D)
Never seen a morning rising brighter

G G A A

[Bridge]
D                    F#m    G
Never tasted sweeter cellar cider
D                      A    Bm
Couldn't hold a hammer stronger
Bm                    G      (D)
Never had a need for shining china

[Interlude]
G G A A

[Verse 2]
D                   F#m     G
I sit right where I used to
D                  A           Bm
My desk chair in a corner in a haze
Bm            G          (D)
Oh my God, my whole damn world's
G                      A     (D)
A smoked out pine in a sonic blaze

D              F#m    G
I still have direction
D                      A           Bm
But I'm digging in my thoughts all day
Bm         G           (D)
I see the devil like I used to
G          A            (D)
I hear my rhythm out of phase


[Chorus]
D                  F#m    G
Never swam a river wider, wider
D                         A  Bm
Couldn't climb a building taller
Bm                   G      (D)
Never seen a morning rising brighter

D                    F#m    G
Never tasted sweeter cellar cider
D                      A    Bm
Couldn't hold a hammer stronger
Bm                    G      (D)
Never had a need for shining china
