Song and lyrics by Dave Simonett

Capo 4th fret

Em_______________________Am_________________E5
Well I ain't your baby I ain't your baby now
Em____________________Am_____________________E5
Them holy rollers got kicked right out of town
______C_____________________G5
It's dark where I've been stayin'
D________________________E5
Don't you worry come on in
__________G__________________D5
Well I've finally found a friend
D________________E5
I've found a friend

C____________G5
Codeine, Codeine
______________D_______________E5
You're the nicest thing I've seen
_______A5
For a while
_______E5
For a while

Well you hold my hand as I step into the room
And all these people they'll all be fading soon
It's whisper time remembered through armor thorns and knives
And it's all I got left to hold on to

Codeine, Codeine
You're the nicest thing I've seen
For a while
For a while

Well you can keep your dusty bottles on your shelf
And you can keep your words of wisdom to yourself
I love you darling so
Why can't you let me go
Before you find me hanging in my cell

Codeine, Codeine
You're the nicest thing I've seen
For a while
For a while

Codeine, Codeine
You're the nicest thing I've seen
For a while
For a while
