Watch your mouth
G Am
your speech is slurred enough
C Em
that you might swallow your tounge
G
you'd want to give up the ghost
Am C
with a little more poise than that
Em G
Or was it god who chokes in these situations?
Em G
the hospice is a relaxing weekend getaway
Am
where you are a cut above all the rest
C
sick and sad patients on first name basis
with all the top physicians

Perscribed Pills
G Am
to offset the shakes
C
to offset the pills [Chorus]
you know you should
Em G Am C
take it a day at a time
Em G Am
That's when you stutter something profound
C
to the support on the line
Em
and with the way you've been talking
G Am C
every word gets you a step closer to hell.
Em G
No, I just can't help it.
Am C
To say what everyone else is thinking
Em G Am C
let me state the obvious again
Em G
I am alone in this bed, house and head
Am C

Em G
I am alone in this bed
Am C
she never fixes that but at least she
