Verse 1:
       F#F#
I met a woman in the hills

Offered me some happy pills
        E MajorE
Said, "It helps with conversation," started rolling dollar bills
  BB
I passed but she asked me something about Beentrill
     F#F#
I said 'that's not me', spilled 805 on my shoes
 F#F#
This brand, that brand, I don't really know, man
 E MajorE
I got a pair of Vans but I pulled them from a trash can
 BB
Bucket hat on asked me where I got it from
    F#F#
I said, "Target, half priced on the fourth of July"

Pre-Chorus:
Dmaj7Dmaj7                  DMaj9Dmaj9   C#m7C#m7
She showed me her skin, asked me what I believe in


Chorus:
      F#F#
I said it couldn't be love 'cause it's too sincere
     E MajorE
And it couldn't be life 'cause death's so near
  BB                    F#F#
So could it be God? Wait I forgot, we don't like him here
     F#F#
So I got nothing to gain, nothing to lose
      E MajorE
Nothing to hide but I've got something to prove
  BB                     F#F#
So believe in me, baby, alleviate the Beverly blues


Transition:

Verse 2:
      F#F#
Now she's looking at me funny

Tying knots between her eyes
   E MajorE
So I roll another friend in a plot to fill the silence
  BB
I pass it to her, ask her what's been weighing on her mind
    F#F#
Says, "Nothing at all," I think she might have been right
  F#F#
My shirt's back on, I guess I figured her wrong
       E MajorE
'Cause she's asking me a question, still looking at me long
      BB
She said, "What did you mean when you were singing that song?"
     F#F#
I said, "Nothing at all" and turned out the light


Pre-Chorus:
Dmaj7Dmaj7                DMaj9Dmaj9   C#m7C#m7
And I'm asking myself what it is I believe in


Chorus:
     F#F#
I said it couldn't be love 'cause it's too sincere
    E MajorE
And it couldn't be life 'cause death's so near
  BB                    F#F#
So could it be God? Wait I forgot, we don't like him here
     F#F#
So I got nothing to gain, nothing to lose
      E MajorE
Nothing to hide but I've got something to prove
  BB                       F#F#
So believe in me, baby, alleviate the Beverly blues
