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