     THEY SPEAK OF MY DRINKING, BUT NEVER OF MY THIRST - The Menzingers 

Tuning: Standard 

Definitely a simplified version of this song, but if you wanted to play along, you could  
just play everything as powerchords and that'd be all of the rhythm guitars parts.

D|-2--x-2-2-2-2--x-2-4--4--4-x--|

E A E B 
E A E B       C#m     B 

E      G#m     A      B 
E      G#m     A      B 

E                                             C#m 
They called a meeting of the doctors and drug dealers in suits 
E                                              C#m 
They're planning on pushing their cure for the truth 
E 
We're the Disneyland dope-fiends, it's a small world 
             C#m 
When they're praying up to your pills 
E 
Generation serotonin: balanced and free 
        C#m 
Sending praise to "The Molecule' 

E                      G#m   A        B            E 
My doctor says, "Don't worry son, its just a trial run, 
       G#m       A                B 
You'll feel much better when it's said and done. 
E A E  B                  E A  
E  B 
And      forget the cost     the market is hot 
E A E  B       C#m     B 
This took your father    and I've got your numbers, 
E   A   C#m   B 
            Well I've got your numbers 
E   A   C#m   B               A          B 
            and I've got your numbers." 


E                             C#m 
Who am I to say? I'm probably drunk... 
E                         C#m 
My cure works for me, but I can barely breath 
E 
While the market research is showing off her new tits, 
   C#m 
Executives' jaws fall to the floor 
E 
"Well, we've finally got the new data and the good news is 
           C#m 
they don't think for themselves anymore" 


E                      G#m   A        B               
      E 
My doctor says, "Don't worry son, they'll get ya when they come 
    G#m                A            B 
But you can hold on forever but the devil's won 
E A E  B                  E A  
E  B 
And      forget the cost     the market is hot 
E A E  B       C#m     B 
This took your father    and I've got your numbers, 
E   A   C#m   B 
            Well I've got your numbers 
E   A   C#m   B               A          B 
            and I've got your numbers."
