 A augmentedA
 Me and Jesse's cousin
 A augmentedA
 Went to the Chevron after work
 A augmentedA            D MajorD
 To grab a couple sixers and some beefy jerk.
 A augmentedA
 The man behind the counter
 A augmentedA
 Said he'd like to see ID
 A augmentedA               D MajorD
 I handed him one of a guy who sorta looked like me

 B minorBm                  E MajorE
 He frowned and asked me what was my address,
 B minorBm                      E MajorE
 I knew the street but I couldn't quite get the rest

 A augmentedA
 I said I'd lost my real ID
 A augmentedA
 And that we would pay him double
 A augmentedA                D MajorD
 We swore that we weren't cops and that he wouldn't get in trouble
 A augmentedA
 He smiled and said, "I'm sorry,
 A augmentedA
 But it's already 12:04
 A augmentedA                  D MajorD
 And the state says it's too late to sell alcohol any more."

 B minorBm              E MajorE
 Sadly we went to put back the beer,
 B minorBm                  E MajorE
 But then a bottle caught my eye, and I got an idea:

      A augmentedA
 What about mouthwash?
      F minorFm
 What about huffing paint?
      G+G
 You don't need ID to buy it,
     D MajorD
 And you can't arrive too late.
       A augmentedA
 What about mouthwash?
      F minorFm
 What about smelling glue?
      G+G
 If they say you can't buy liquor,
      D MajorD
 Then some cough syrup should do.

 B minorBm                 E MajorE
 Before we count this night up as a loss,
      A augmentedA
 What about mouthwash?


For the next verse you can play:
E MajorE|--------------------|
BB|-----------------2--|
G+G|-----------------2--|  On the 4th and 8th time
D MajorD|-----------------2--|  play a D MajorD instead of an A augmentedA
A majorA|-----------------0--|
E MajorE|----0--2--5--2------|
          A augmentedA


 Sittin' in the truck in the parking lot
 Underneath the moon and all them stars
 We don't need their liquor stores and we don't need their bars
 Drinking Listerine and tonic
 And Jesse's cousin sipped a Scope and Coke
 Robitussin Red Bull, now that shit ain't no joke


 B minorBm                   E MajorE
 But something changed within me at that store,
 B minorBm                  E MajorE
 Beer and spirits just don't cut it any more


 A augmentedA
 The whispers that I hear
 A augmentedA
 And the looks that I keep gettin'
 A augmentedA                  D MajorD
 When I toast with a Dimetapp daiquiri at a fancy wedding
 A augmentedA
 And last night a cop pulled me over
 A augmentedA
 Goin' down 95 South
 A augmentedA                D MajorD
 And he saw the Sherwin-Williams all over my nose and mouth

  A augmentedA
 He just looked straight at me
   A augmentedA
 With pity in his eyes
      A augmentedA                 D MajorD
 Like he'd just seen the depths of sadness a man can have inside
      A augmentedA
 And the lengths to which he'll go
      A augmentedA
 To numb it down for another day
   A augmentedA                  D MajorD
 He looked as if he'd cry but then he just walked away.


 B minorBm                   E MajorE
 I watched as he drove off down the Interstate
 B minorBm                   E MajorE
 And then I thought to myself, "that's another reason this stuff's great!"

      A augmentedA
 What about mouthwash?
      F minorFm
 What about sniffing glue?
      G+G
 When the police pull you over,
    D MajorD
 They ain't sure what to do
      A augmentedA
 What about mouthwash?
       F minorFm
 Or even hand sanitizer?
      G+G
 When they check your glove compartment,
    D MajorD
 They won't be none the wiser.

 B minorBm                 E MajorE
 Before we count this night up as a loss,
         A augmentedA
 Say, what about mouthwash?

      A augmentedA
 What about mouthwash?
