I was addicted to you,
   G

Em                         C
You were afflicted by booze,
G                     Em

G                      Em
Hittin' you over the head.

You were a dick with your crew,
G
Always on the road.
Em                        C
You wanna touch life so hard,
G
Why can't you give it a rest?
Em                             C
You're not that bright for a star,
G                              Am
Burned yourself out, nothing left.

But death doesn't come,

       D
With a warning.
