Verse:

    A                      Asus2/C#               D
     I never  seen  you   lookin' so bad  my    funky one

  A                    Asus2/C#               G          A/G  G  A/G  G
 You tell me that your super-fine  mind has  come undone

  Bm7                F#m7                        Abm7
Any major dude with half a heart  surely would  tell you my friend

   Bm7                          F#m7                    Abm7
Any amount of world that      breaks apart  falls  to - gether again

         Bm7           D/E          Amaj7           Gmaj7
When the demon  is    at your      door    in the   morning he won't be

  F#m7     B7    A7         G7              F#m7
there   no     more  any   major dude would tell you

 D         G               A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 G5 A5
  Any    major dude would  tell


(These last chords go over the riff-the last change from G5 to A5 should be
slid)

The other verses and choruses go as above, and the solo is played over the same
chords as the verse

There is a middle bit which comes after the third (I think!) chorus

It goes:

 F#m7            Abm7                  Amaj7                C#m7
I can tell you   all I know   the     where  to go    the   what to do

 F#m7            Abm7               Bm7                   D/E
You can try to  run but you can't  hide from what's    inside  of you

(The solo comes next)

That's all!
