Verse 1:
   Em
Virginia was a lot lizard from FLA
Em                                 B
She had a compound fracture in the trunk
    Am
It started when she ran away
Em
Thumbs out on the interstate
    B                     Em
She hitched a ride to misery
    Em
Mr. Whirly had a catastrophic incident
Em                           B
He fell into the city by the bay
   Am
He liquidated his estate
Em
Now he sleeps upon the haight
B                Em
Pan handling misery

Chorus 1:
---No chord------- B
And he's gonna get high-igh-igh
          Em   
When he's low low low
    B                      Em
The fire burns from better days
                 Bm
And she screams, "Why, oh why?"
         Em
I said, "I don't know"
    Am                            B
The catastrophic hymns from yesterday
       Em
Of misery

(The second verse is the same with the first one)     

Verse 2:
Well Vinnie was a hustler out of Amsterdam                 
He ran the drug cartel in Tinseltown
They found him in a Cadillac
Bludgeoned with a baseball bat
In the name of misery

Verse 3:(The same goes with the third verse):
Regina hit the road to New York City
Mysteriously the night Vinnie croaked
She stopped in Vegas to elope
With Virginia and the dope
And kissed the bride eternally

Chorus 2:
---No chord---------  B
And they're gonna get high-igh-igh
             Em   
When they're low low low
    B                      Em
The fire burns from better days
                 Bm
And she screams, "Why, oh why?"
         Em
I said, "I don't know"
    Am                            B
The catastrophic hymns from yesterday
       Em
Of misery

Bridge:
B                                    Em
Hell hounds on your trail now once again boy
     B                            Em
It's groping on your leg until it sleeps
    B                                  Em
The emptiness will fill your soul with sorrow
      Am                                   Bm   Bm Bm
Cause it's not what you make it's what you leave

Chorus 3:
---No chord-------- Bm
And we're gonna get high-igh-igh
             Em   
When we're low low low
    B                      Em
The fire burns from better days
                 Bm
And she screams, "Why, oh why?"
         Em
I said, "I don't know"
    Am                            B
The catastrophic hymns from yesterday
       Em
Of misery
