Verse 1:
                 A5
there's a little darkness
      Am3
on my horizon 
        E5
and i'm pushing up the ante that is 
F5          E5
getting closer
    A5           Am3
and pardon my expression 
         E5
but it's shit like this that sticks 
              F5                 E5
and makes you mix with dirty water

(whistling)

oh when dirty water's all you have to fill your cup

don't drink too much, don't drink too much
