[Intro]
Em9 Gmaj7 C Em9 (x2)
[Verse 1]
Em9 Walking around at night,
Gmaj7 Fighting my appetite
C Every kid in cutoffs could be yEm9ou.
Remember when we used to meet,
Gmaj7 The bottom of Mobile Street,
C Do what the broken people dEm9o.
[Chorus 1]
G Are you still taking nDotes?
The Holy GhAmost could get inside you
And do whatCever he put your mind to.
G Will you read me what you wrDote
We were lAmocked outside the building
Over-encoCuraged only children
[Verse 2]
Em9 Cold coffee on the fire escape
Gmaj7 Bet it all on a demo tape
C But you still had something left to steEm9al.
Remember when we took too much
Gmaj7 Get a little of the human touch
C Hand to mouth and reel to rEm9eel.
[Chorus 2]
G Are you still taking nDotes?
HydrocAmodone in your backpack
Maybe these wCords will hold the beast back.
G Will you read me what you wrDote?
The one I sAmaid you stole from Dylan
Over-encoCuraged only children.
[Interlude 1]
Em9 Gmaj7 C Em9 (x2)
[Bridge]
C "Heaven's waBmsted on the dAmead.”
That's what your Mama said
C And the hearse was iBmdling in the pAmarking lot.
C She said you thBmought the world to Amme
And you were glad to see it
C You finally lBmet me be an Dastronaut.
[Interlude 2]
G D C (x2)
[Chorus 3]
G Are you still taking nDotes?
Do you have Amanyone to talk to
Castle wCalls that you would walk through.
G And do the dead believe in ghDosts?
Or are you lAmost in some old building
With over-encoCuraged only children.
[Outro]
