Verse 1
E* c#m B A
E* c#m B A
Happiness, it's been no friend to me but forever after ain't what it's all cracked up to be
E* c#m B A
Yeah, I had a taste, you were my fantasy, but I allmost lost my faith when I hit reality
[B]I don't need no Guru to tell me what to do, when your fe[A]eling like a headline on yesterday's news.
Chorus
Come on, come on, come on
Give me something for the p[E]ain, Give [A]me something for the [B]blues
Give me something for the p[E]ain when I[A] feel I've been dangli[B]n' from a hang-man's noose
Give me shelter from the ra[E]in, somethin[A]g I can use[B]
[A]To get me through the night, to make me [B]feel alright some pill like you[E] [A]
Come on come on come on
Verse 2
Loneliness has found a home in me my suitcase and guitar are my only family
I've tried to need someone, like they needed me I opend up my heart, but all I did was bleed
I don't need no lover, just get screwed, they don't make a bandage that's going to cover my bruise
Chorus

Help I'm falling (pull me under through my veins to a place where I feel no pain)
