Intro:
Cm7---Bm7-Cm7---Cm7---Bm7-Cm7  X2





          Cm7    Bm7-Cm7        E7-F7
I like my town with a little drop of poison
   F#7-G7                            Bm7-Cm7
Nobody knows they're lining up to go insane
         Cm7    Bm7-Cm7           E7-F7
I'm all alone, I smoke my friends down to the filter
F#7-G7                              B7-Cm7
But I feel much cleaner after it rains

similarly...

She left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
She left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison

Did the devil make the world while God was sleeping
Someone said you'll never get a wish from a bone
Another wrong goodbye and a hundred sailors
That deep blue sky is my home

She left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
She left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison


C#m7      Cm7-C#m7                     F#7   F7-F#7
A rat always knows when he's in with weasels
Ab7         G7-Ab7             C#m7      Cm7-C#m7
Here you lose a little every day
C#m7      Cm7-C#m7                     F#7   F#-F#7
I remember when a million was a million
Ab7         G7-Ab7             C#m7      Cm7-C#m7
They all have ways to make you pay

She left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
She left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
