Doo-doo-doo
[Verse 1]
F
I'm packed and I'm holding, I'm smiling,
C Csus4 Bb
She's living, she's golden, she lives for me
She says she lives for me
F C Csus4
Ovation her own motivation
Bb F
She comes around and she goes down on me
C Csus4
And I make her smile like a drug for you
Bb
Do ever what you want to do
F
Coming over you
C Csus4
Keep on smiling what we go through
Bb
One stop to the rhythm that divides you
[Pre-Chorus]
F C Csus4 Bb
And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse
F
Chop another line like a coda with a curse
C Csus4 Bb
Come on like a freak show takes the stage
We give them the games we play she said
[Chorus 1]
F C Csus4 Bb
I want something else
F
To get me through this
C Csus4 Bb
Semi-charmed kind of life baby, baby
F C Csus4 Bb
I want something else, I'm not listening
F C Csus4 Bb
when you say good---bye

[Verse 2]
F
The sky it was gold, it was rose
C Csus4 Bb
I was taking sips of it through my nose
And I wish I could get back there
F
Some place back there
C Csus4
Smiling in the pictures you would take
Bb
Doing crystal meth will lift
you up until you break
F C
It won't stop I won't come down
Csus4 Bb
I keep stock with a tick-tock
rhythm, a bump for the drop
F
And then I bumped up
C Csus4
I took the hit that I was given
Bb
Then I bumped again
Then I bumped again, said
[Pre-Chorus]
C Bb
How do I get back there to
C
The place where I
Bb
fell asleep inside you?
C Bb
How do I get myself back to
C
The place where you said
[Chorus 1]
F C Csus4 Bb
I want something else
F
To get me through this
C Csus4 Bb
Semi-charmed kind of life baby, baby
F C Csus4 Bb
I want something else, I'm not listening
F C Csus4 Bb
when you say Good---bye
[Verse 3]
F C
I believe in the sand
Bb
beneath my toes
The beach gives a feeling
F
An earthy feeling
C
I believe in the
Bb
faith that grows
And the four right
F C Csus4
chords can make me cry
Bb
When I'm with you I
F
feel like I could die
And that would be
C Csus4 Bb
all right, all right
[Bridge]
C
and when the plane came in
Bb C
She said she was crashing
Bb
The velvet it rips in
C
the city we tripped
Bb
On the urge to feel alive
F
But now I'm struggling
to survive
C
Those days you were wearing
Bb
That velvet dress
C
You're the priestess
Bb
I must confess
C
Those little red panties
Bb
They pass the test
F (hold)
Slide up around the belly face down on the mattress
C Bb
One
C Bb
And you hold me
C Bb
and we're broken
F
Still it's all that I
wanna do just a little now
[Verse 4]
F C
Feel myself head
Csus4 Bb
made of the ground
I'm scared I'm not coming
F C Csus4 Bb
down, no no, and I won't
F C Csus4
run for my life
Bb
She's got her jaws now
F
locked down in a smile
C Csus4 Bb
But nothing is alright, alright
[Chorus 2]
F Csus4 Bb
I want something else
F Csus4
To get me through this
Bb
life, baby
F Csus4 Bb
I want something else
I'm not listening
F Csus4 Bb F/A Gm

I was taking sips of it through my nose
And I wish I could get back there

Charlie and the MTA
F Bb
Let me tell you of a story 'bout a man named Charlie
F C7
On a tragic and fateful day.
F Bb
He put ten cents in his pocket, kissed his wife and family,
F C7 F
Went to ride on the M T A.
F Bb
But will he ever return? No he'll never return,
F C7
And his fate is still unlearned.
F Bb
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston,
F C7 F
He's the man who never returned.
F Bb
Charlie handed in his dime at the Scully Square Station,
F C7
And he changed for Jamaica Plain.
F Bb
When he got there the conductor told him, "One more nickel!"
F C7 F
Charlie couldn't get off of that train.
F Bb
Now all night long Charlie rides through the stations,
F C7
Crying, "What will become of me?
F Bb
How can I afford to see my sister in Chelsey,
F C7 F
Or my brother in Roxbury?"
F Bb
Charlie's wife goes down to the Scully Square Station,
F C7
Every day at a quarter past two.
F Bb
And through the open window she hands Charlie his sandwich
F C7 F
As the train goes rumbling through.
F Bb
Now you citizens of Boston, don't you think it's a scandal,
F C7
How the people have to pay and pay?
F Bb
Fight the fare increase, vote for George O'Brien,
F C7 F
Get poor Charlie off the M T A!

Now and then I think of when we were together

Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Dm C Dm C
Told myself that you were right for me

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness

Always the end
Dm C Dm C
So when we found that we could not make sense
Dm C Dm C
Well you said that we would still be friends
Dm C Dm C Dm C Dm C
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over
[Chorus]
Dm C Bb C
But you didn't have to cut me off
Dm C Bb
Make out like it never happened
C Dm
And that we were nothing
C Bb C
And I don't even need your love
Dm C
But you treat me like a stranger
Bb C
And that feels so rough
Dm C Bb C
You didn't have to stoop so low
Dm C Bb
Have your friends collect your records
C Dm
And then change your number
C Bb C
I guess that I don't need that though

Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Reading into every word you say

You said that you could let it go

And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know

But you didn't have to cut me off

Make out like it never happened
