F                G            Am
This patch is pumping poison in my pours
                       G
I can't take that much more
       C           G
What a poor way to live

            F             G                 Am
And I don't wanna lose my voice when I'm on tour
                          G
I'd like to live a little more
           C              G
and have a little more to give

Chorus:
    F                        G
And smoking is like hiring a hit man
    C              Am
for five dollars a day
       F                        G                     C     Am
and as cool as that is, I don't wanna keep dying this way

(Just continue as before.)

I'm shaking like a junkie
and I'm shivering like a crackhead
I've gotta get this fucking monkey off my back

And I just need to remember
that I can't afford to be a big spender
and this is tobacco and not crack

and smoking is like hiring a hit man
for five dollars a day
and as cool as that is, I don't wanna keep dying this way

as cool as that is, I don't wanna keep dying this way
