[Verse 1]
Cm
Sitting at a stop sign
D#
Lookin' for a friend of mine
G# C# D#
Waiting to salute the flag
Cm
Talkin' to some he/she
G#
Slidin' over next to me
D# C# D#
Man, she said, this life is a drag
Cm
It's a shaky situation
G#
I'm hangin' on my will
D#
And I get no satisfaction
C# G#
From a hundred dollar bill
Cm
But I got what I came for
G#
And I'll do it 'till I drop
D#
You do what you want to do
C# G#
I ain't never gonna stop
[Chorus]
Cm G#
You say you got something that makes you feel good
D# C# D#
And you can't stop messin' with it
Cm G#
All your life you've been so misunderstood
D# C# D#
'Cause you can't stop messin' with it.
Cm G# D# C# G#
[Verse 2]
Cm
Sittin' by the seashore
G#
Dreamin' 'bout a little more
D# C# D#
Circlin' the classifieds
Cm
976
G#
Man I need another fix
D# C# D#
I'll never have to kiss the bride
Cm
Yeah, the city is a war zone
G#
This country gone to hell
D#
And the beer cans in the alley
G# C# D#
From the rich folks on the hill
Cm
They're screamin' hallellujah
G#
But I don't givea damn
D#
'Cause I got my own religion
C# D#
Yeah, it's a right here in my hand
[Chorus]
Cm G#
You say you got something that makes you feel good
D# C# D#
And you can't stop messin' with it
Cm G#
All your life you've been so misunderstood
D# C# D#
'Cause you can't stop messin'with it.
