[F] [D] [F]
[D] Well, mine [G] is craving, there's a shaking [Dm] in [D] my [Dm] head.
[A]
[D] [F] [D]
[C] I'm dying, [Bm] I wish [A] I was dead.
[C] [C#] If [D] I get [C] tomorrow, that [Bm] will [A] be a [D] long time.
[F] [D]
[C]
[G] But I'll ride [Cm] [D] on the cold night, yeah.
It's free.

[C#] [D]

[G] [F]
[D]
Well, when I was [C] just a young man, [G] I learned [D] not to care.
[Am] [D]
Whiskey [C] and rummy, you [Bm] know often I [A] did sway.
Well, [F] [C#] [D] my parents, [C] they warned me [G] that liquor [Dm]
[D] ain't good for the sake [C] of their baby.
It [G] was spinning [Cm] [C#] many [D] times, but [F] [D] yeah, God is free.
[G]
Well, [F] I
[D] learned [C#] [D]
[C]
[G] so [F] much more [D] from going to the drugstore cafe and just talking to people
than I ever learned in college or high school, because I think [G] knowledge can be gained much
[N] more from contact with people than from books.
And the drugstore is really a good place to do this.
People just go in and order coffee and sit down and laugh and talk to each other and learn.
The problem is though now that they've started charging a 50 cent minimum after 6 o'clock
in the afternoon.
It is kind of a hassle because sometimes you don't have 50 cents, but it's just in keeping
with the rest of Haight Street, which is getting so commercial anyway.
It's one of the few nice places left that you can go in and just see your friends.
