MISERY

[intro]   Bbm

Virginia was a "lot lizard" from F.L.A

                                                            F
She had a compound fracture in the "trunk"

     Bbm
It started when she ran away

Eb                               Ebm
Thumbs out on the interstate

       F                          Bbm
She hitched a ride to misery

Mr. Whirly had a catastrophic incident

                                            F
He fell into the city by the bay

      Bbm
He liquidated his estate

Eb                     Ebm
Now he sleeps upon the Haight

      F             Bbm
Panhandling misery

                          F
He's gonna get high

                  Bbm
When he's low

         F                                 Bbm
The fire burns from better days

                              F
And she screams why oh why

          Bbm
I said I don't know

       Eb                  Ebm                      F
The catastrophic hymns from yesterday

     Bbm
Of misery

Vinnie was a hustler out of Amsterdam

                                                   F
He ran the drug cartel in Tinseltown

         Bbm
They found him in a cadillac

Eb                          Ebm
Bludgeoned with a baseball bat

F                       Bbm
In the name of misery

Gina hit the road from New York City

                                                   F
Mysteriously the night Vinnie croaked

        Bbm             
She stopped in Vegas to elope

Eb                    Ebm
With Virginia and the dope

F                                 Bbm
And kissed the bride eternally

                                    F
And they're gonna get high

                        Bbm
When they're low

      F                                     Bbm
The fire burns from better days

                                F
And she screamed why oh why

         Bbm
I said I don't know

        Eb                Ebm                         F  
The catastrophic hymns from yesterday

     Bbm
Of misery

Ebm                           F                     Bbm
Hell hounds on your trail now once again...boy

       Ebm                     F                Bbm
It's groping on your leg until it sleeps

       Ebm                   F                          Bbm
The emptiness will fill your soul with sorrow

                 Ebm                                    F       Ebm    F
Because it's not what you make it's what you leave

[verse chords]

                                   F
And we're gonna get high

               Bbm
When I'm low

       F                                 Bbm
The fire burns from better days

                               F
And she screamed why oh why

           Bbm
I said I don't know

        Eb                  Ebm                     F
The catastrophic hymns from yesterday

     Bbm  
Of misery
