Riff 1   B      C#9
        Walking away.
               F#6
It's not the same as running.
C#6      F#sus   B              C#9       F#6   C#6 Riff 1
Is it to you know that you've run in this ground.
B              C#9
And you say take this.
       F#6         C#6     F#sus   B
This medicine is just what you deserve.
C#6                    F#6
Swallow, choke, and die.

Chorus:
           F#
And this bitter pill is leaving you
       C#sus/F#
with such an angry mouth.
            D#m
One that's void of all discretion
         C#7
such an awful tearing sound.
           F#                        C#sus/F#
With it's measure only equal by the power of my stare
        G#m7                          C#7
glaring over you and over you this feeling of despair
       G#m7       C#7           F#6        Riff 1
is never wearing out.


B             C#9
It's wearing off
           F#6           C#6       F#sus    B
and it's leaving you with such a heavy heart
      C#9   F#6  C#6  Riff 1
and a head to match.
B              C#9
The bottle is waiting
     F#              C#6      F#sus   B
the cap is twisted begging to be used
    C#9     F#6
and so are you.
