[Intro]
G F C 
G F C C7

[Verse]
G
Strung out on methadone and all her excuses 
C                           D
Scared of the blues and the grays
G                            C
She’s never been gone, she’s broke down and then some 
Am                      D
Whiles away most of her days 
G
Halfway smoked cigarettes and all kinds of bad news 
C                    D
Linger around in her lips 
G                   C
Lighting 100’s with Red Lobster matches 
Am                        D      D7
What could be better than this? 

[Chorus]
        C                          D                     G       F
Oh, but if you go downtown they’ll ask you to stay for a song 
C                          D                          G
Careful my friend that you don’t hang around there too long 
C                               D                           G  F      Em    A
If you don’t watch out then you turn back around and you’ll be sucked in 
G            F       C        D     G     
You’ll never see the light of day again 

[Verse]
G
So throw out the telephone and your verbal abuses 
C                 D
Everytime I come around 
G                     C
Feel himself changing conceals all his pain 
     Am                       D
In a glass only half full of amberish brown 
G
Overexposure for underachievers 
     C                     D
Will win you a five dollar bet 
G                           C
Trying to find something to replace the whiskey 
    Am                       D    D7
But church-going women ain’t it 

[Chorus]
        C                          D                     G       F
Oh, but if you go downtown they’ll ask you to stay for a song 
C                          D                          G
Careful my friend that you don’t hang around there too long 
C                               D                           G  F      Em    A
If you don’t watch out then you turn back around and you’ll be sucked in 
G            F       C        D     G F C A
You’ll never see the light of day again 
G            F       C        D     G F C 
You’ll never see the light of day again

[Verse]
G
Four Lincoln Town Cars parked outside 
C                     D
Beneath that magnolia tree 
G                    C
All that glitter and sparkly chrome 
      Am                      D      D7
Don’t tell you what lies underneath

[Chorus]
        C                          D                     G       F
Oh, but if you go downtown they’ll ask you to stay for a song 
C                          D                          G
Careful my friend that you don’t hang around there too long 
C                               D                           G  F      Em    A
If you don’t watch out then you turn back around and you’ll be sucked in 
G            F       C        D     G F C A
You’ll never see the light of day again 
G            F       C        D     G F C A
You’ll never see the light of day again 
G            F       C        D     G F C 
You’ll never see the light of day again
