Tuned half a step down.

Sick of LSD
Sick of Drugs are we.


Before verse 2, play D A E D A E + Intro Riff over the top.

Verse 2 and the Chorus use the same chords as previously.

Bridge:

   E (022100@1)                DE--------5---------------------| (xx0232@1)B----5-------5--------x-x-x-x--|
G--2---2---2---2--4---x-x-x-x--|
D------------------------------|  x 4
A------------------------------|
E------------------------------|

Keep playing the intro riff with these chords.

D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A D (xx0232@1)C# (x43121@1)B (x2444x@1)A (x02220@1)G (320003@1)F (133211@1)E**

As you go into the chorus the final time, don't play the first D. That's basically the 
song, hope it helps.


* I find its best to play A7 as:

E-----
B-----
G--6--
D--5--
A--7--
E--5--

** This final E should be played as

E-----
B-----
G-----
D--2--
A--2--
E--0--

All other Es in the song are:

E-----
B-----
G--9--
D--9--
A--7--
E-----
