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

[Solo]
(Gm D# G# F#)
[Chorus]
Gm D#
You say you got something that makes you feel good
A# G# A#
And you can't stop messin' with it
Gm D#
All your life you've been so misunderstood
A# G# A#
'Cause you can't stop messin'with it.
