[D] [G] [D] You wanna [G] find a [D] way, I'll take you [G] out here in a minute
[D] Step in my flat, [G] keep your head in [D] it
I live in the land [G] of the welfare state
[D] My flat used to [G] be second [D] A
Now it's my [G] fancy cocaine road
And [D] a whole world plays [G] at my cocaine drum [C] [G] Drunken [D] Road
[C] [G] Yeah, yeah, [D] I arrived to the hallway [A] again
[D] I saw my gate, [G] my cruise again [F#] boarding
And everything [G] was still running on
[D] Some things, [G] aren't like the weather
[D] And it don't seem to change here, [Gm] my board up [D] bad
School came up [Gm] to me, said she'd do me no harm
[D] Rolled up her sleeves, she showed [Gm] me tracks on [D] her arm
What's your [G] name girl?

Pain is the only thing that keep her around
If he wants to dance, put the keys in [F#] the cell
[D] Cause I ain't brought some shit [G] down to the civic market

He hit that dirty [G] spike when he hit this [D] scene
See this, a [Gm] dirty man with nothing clean
[D] Cause he's a writer
[G] Pack a [F#] jackal, jackal not clamped [G] on Unclampable [D] shackles
Boot up and shoot [G] up, some dope to go
It's like legal currency, it's like money to go

[D] It don't seem right [G] tonight
Hit the lights, [D] alright
Watch the roaches [G] run into the darkest [C] rooms [G] He's [D] Drunken Yeah, [C] [G] yeah
