[E] How long you been [Em] asleep at [Am] the wheel?
Out of [E] control, gathering up [A] the speed
Your heart is [E] on the dashboard, head's in [Am] the street
I hope that [D] you wake up in time [A] to see
[Am] [E] Place [G] [Am]
[E] [G] [C]
[Am] [E]
me for telephone [A] hits
Your attitude [E] is mud and your promise [A] is dead
You [E] counteract the fuel with the drink and [A] the drugs
It's not what [E] you did, it's what you [A] will do
So take [Em] another turn on merry [Am]-go-round
Your numbers [E] all come up, now you're king of [A] the town
So buckle [E] up and chase yourself and [A] you thrill
You'll never [D] go speed like before
[A] You keep [C] coming [E] back for more
[G] So [A] find me all those [C] knocking [E] on your door
[G] Saying that [C] you are [Am] the saddest thing [E] I know
You've [Am] got a cause when [Am] begging [E] for a score
[G] You [A] lose it all [Am] as your stubble's [E] in the floor

[G] To [Am] find your own hood pushing [E] on your head
[G] Saying that [C] you are [Am] the saddest thing [E] I [G] know
I [Am] see the trouble under [E] sin your hair
[G] [Am] You've got the over-the-line, it's [E] got me staring
Saying [G] that [C] you are [F] [Am] the saddest thing [E] I know
When you [Em] go to finally [Am] admit it's the end of [E] the line
You've been [A] hammered and hit
Your body [E] is a wreck and your mind [Am] is amiss
I know what [E] you want
I think this [Am] is [Ab] it
