[Intro]
 D            A       Asus4
 Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
 G
 Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
 D            A       Asus4
 Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
 G
 Doo-doo-doo
 
 
 [Verse 1]
                    D
 I'm packed and I'm holding, I'm smiling,
       A             Asus4       G
 She's living, she's golden, she lives for me
 
 She says she lives for me
 D           A       Asus4
 Ovation her own motivation
 G                                     D
 She comes around and she goes down on me
                 A           Asus4
 And I make her smile like a drug for you
 G
 Do ever what you want to do
             D
 Coming over you
            A               Asus4
 Keep on smiling what we go through
 G
 One stop to the rhythm that divides you
 
 
 [Pre-Chorus]
 D                  A        Asus4         G
 And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse
                                      D
 Chop another line like a coda with a curse
                A          Asus4     G
 Come on like a freak show takes the stage
 
 We give them the games we play she said
 
 
 [Chorus 1]
 D      A    Asus4 G
 I want something else
                        D
 To get me through this
 A              Asus4 G
 Semi-charmed kind of life baby, baby
 D      A   Asus4 G
 I want something else, I'm not listening
          D  A Asus4 G
 when you say good---bye
 
 
 [Post-chorus]
 D            A       Asus4
 Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
 G       
 Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
 D            A       Asus4
 Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
 G
 Doo-doo-doo
 
 
 [Verse 2]
                D
 The sky it was gold, it was rose
       A           Asus4            G
 I was taking sips of it through my nose
 
 And I wish I could get back there
            D
 Some place back there
                A                  Asus4
 Smiling in the pictures you would take
 G
 Doing crystal meth will lift
 
 you up until you break
           D                A
 It won't stop I won't come down
        Asus4        G
 I keep stock with a tick-tock
 
 rhythm, a bump for the drop
            D
 And then I bumped up
            A              Asus4
 I took the hit that I was given
        G
 Then I bumped again
 
 Then I bumped again, said
 
 
 [Pre-Chorus]
 A               G
   How do I get back there to
       A
 The place where I
         G
 fell asleep inside you?
  A              G
 How do I get myself back to
       A
 The place where you said
 
 
 [Chorus 1]
 
 D      A    Asus4 G
 I want something else
                        D
 To get me through this
 A              Asus4 G
 Semi-charmed kind of life baby, baby
 D      A   Asus4 G
 I want something else, I'm not listening
          D  A Asus4 G
 when you say Good---bye
 
 
 [Verse 3]
 
 D                A
 I believe in the sand
            G
 beneath my toes
 The beach gives a feeling
           D
 An earthy feeling
     A
 I believe in the
            G
 faith that grows
 And the four right
            D           A Asus4
 chords can make me cry
 G
 When I'm with you I
                   D
 feel like I could die
 
 And that would be 
 A   Asus4    G
 all right,   all right
 
 
 [Bridge]
                A
 and when the plane came in
      G                   A
 She said she was crashing
                G
 The velvet it rips in
               A
 the city we tripped
                 G
 On the urge to feel alive
      D
 But now I'm struggling
 
 to survive
        A
 Those days you were wearing
       G
 That velvet dress
  A
 You're the priestess
    G
 I must confess
       A
 Those little red panties
       G
 They pass the test
       D (hold)
 Slide up around the belly face down on the mattress
 
 A   G
 One 
          A      G
 And you hold me
             A    G
 and we're broken
            D
 Still it's all that I
 
 wanna do just a little now
 
 
 [Verse 4]
 D           A
 Feel myself head
       Asus4 G
 made of the ground
 
 I'm scared I'm not coming
 D   A Asus4  G
 down, no     no, and I won't
         D      A  Asus4
 run for my life
 G
 She's got her jaws now
                   D
 locked down in a smile
                A    Asus4 G
 But nothing is alright,   alright
 
 
 [Chorus 2]
 D      Asus4     G
 I want something else
           D             Asus4
 To get me through this
 G
  life, baby
 D      Asus4     G
 I want something else
 
 I'm not listening
 D        Asus4  G     D/F# Em
 when you say goodbye
     G D/F# Em
 goodbye
     G D/F# Em
 goodbye
     D  A Asus4 G D A Asus4 G
 goodbye
 
 
 [Post-chorus]
 D            A       Asus4
 Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
 G       
 Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
 D            A       Asus4     G
 Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
 
 
 [Outro]
                D
 The sky it was gold it was rose
       A           Asus4            G
 I was taking sips of it through my nose
 
 And I wish I could get back there
            D
 Some place back there
        A         Asus4   G
 in the place you used to start
 D            A       Asus4
 Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
 G       
 Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
 
 D      A   Asus4 G
 I want something else
 
 G D/F# Em (hold)
