Verse 1
A                       E
I get up early when the sleeping pill wakes me
Bm                        D
I take a wake up pill and fill with energy
A          E                   Bm
I power on hard and I check my messages
      D
But I don't have any messages
A                         E
I take a driving pill and head to my car
Bm                          D
I drive around a bit 'cause work isn't very far
A         E                    Bm
I call my phone and I check my messages
      D
But I don't have any messages

Pre-chorus 1
E             G                      D                      A

 Work is anything but quiet these days
Bm                    D
 I try to medicate my concentration haze
A                  E         Bm
I can feel the day unfold in front of me
     D
So I take the stairs and hit the gym
A                            E
 The phone is ringing when I get to my desk
Bm                           D 
 What was a stinging's now a sharp pain in my chest
A            E                 Bm(break)
 So I take a Calminex and just chill
    D
And then it's time for lunch again
