Intro:
A


Verse 1:
  A
I wonder how the old folks are at home
  A                              A7
I wonder if it's hotter than the devil's dick on fire
     D                                            A
In a wool sock that is soaked, I mean, completely doused
   E                                               A
In kerosene and set ablaze the way it's here right now
  A
I wonder if my friends are fast asleep
   A                               A7
Or are they off together somewhere stumblin' through the streets?
       D                                        A
Makin' memories that will be forgotten with the moon
E                                                  A
Leavin' them to wonder why their lеgs and arms are bruised

Chorus:
         D
Do their livеrs scream for water?
          A
Are their brains about to swell
            B7
Through the soft part of their temple
           E
While they grind their teeth like hell?
         D
Are they talkin' o'er each other?
        A
Leavin' nearly a stone unturned
E                                                A
Getting to the bottom of an angst hard-fought to learn


Verse 2:
  A
I never wanna get that way again
A                                     A7
Feelin' like my head's a house with a roommate movin' in
      D                                  A
Who's incessantly talkin', never slowing down
E                                         A
Possessed with evil urges, burn it to the ground


Chorus:
       D
With a tongue twitch like a lizard
      A
And a grin just like a rat
B7
Backed against a corner
      E
After pesterin' the cat
   D
Preparin' to be peeled open
        A
Just as easy as dessert
E                                                A
Getting to the bottom of an angst hard-fought to learn


[Break]
A A A A
A A A A
D D D A
E E E A A7


Outro:
    D                          A
The pheromones of this city secrete a sand quick set
   B7                                  E
To call for it from the recesses of my mind, the fear of death
    D                                   A
The thrill my heart my thump so hard it breaks a joist or worse
E                                                A
Getting to the bottom of an angst hard-fought to learn
E                                                A    A7*
Getting to the bottom of an angst hard-fought to learn
