A              D              A                  B 
You say...this morning...last saw...good friend 
A               B 
Lying on...his brain 
A                D                 A          B 
Stoned on...new potion...he found...the wall 
   A           E            D 
Of some...some ungodly hall 
    D         A          B           E 
He only...a dollar...to live...next Monday 
    A               B 
He spent...for his mind 
        D         A 
Did you say..he's blind? 
 
The second verse is the same 
 
The end of that verse flying low and dyin' slow is just the repeated 
( D ) to ( A ) 
After the solo,  the song changes key up to (B) for the last verse so the  progression is: 
B E B C# 

B C# 

B E B C# 

B F# E 

E B C# F# 

B C# 

E B 
then the last words are, again just repeated 
( E ) ( B )
