Verse 1:

DmDm             A augmentedA
She's a Salvador immigrant, head through a thin walls
D MajorD        B minorBm
A augmentedA frail hooker, holding her carnal walls
DmDm            A augmentedA
Gleaming sky scraper bunker he looked down
DmDm            B minorBm
Laugh hysterically and then he spread around
DmDm          B minorBm
On Hoover Street, then he must be alone
DmDm          B minorBm
The precious little kid cashed the woes
DmDm          B minorBm
Salvadorian girl, she kind of made you spill
DmDm          B minorBm
Her brother Mario got shot four times in the head
DmDm          B minorBm
Now see poor Mario, he caught a hot one
DmDm          B minorBm
Through the lung, now he's done so God bless the man
DmDm          B minorBm       DmDm          B minorBm
Cocaine moved through that system, like a river forever winding
DmDm          B minorBm
To the last party of the lower class
 DmDm              B minorBm
Even distance, just a bunch of kids who don't wanna finish last
DmDm           B minorBm
Now see the market place has changed the weight of the scale
DmDm          B minorBm
You either get out and die or go to jail
DmDm          B minorBm
And your best intentions splinter and frail
DmDm          B minorBm
And a few weeks of promises and attempts to fail

Chorus:

 DmDm       B minorBm
It's a glass-pipe murder
 DmDm    BB   A augmentedA  B minorBm
Glass-pipe murder, oh yeah
 DmDm     B minorBm
Glass-pipe murder
 DmDm    BB   A augmentedA  B minorBm
It's a glass-pipe murder, oh yeah

D MajorD A augmentedA G+G

 B minorBm A augmentedA   D MajorD A augmentedA G+G B minorBm A augmentedA
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

Verse 2:

DmDm          B minorBm
They kick a bottle of beer and a letter
DmDm          B minorBm
Simple things made Mario feel better
 DmDm          B minorBm
You see it falls on you and it falls on me
DmDm          B minorBm
Self-annihilation, catastrophe
 DmDm          B minorBm
Two packs of cigarettes
DmDm          B minorBm
For two dollars and seventy cents
 DmDm          B minorBm
And a bottle of wine that's been opened
 DmDm          B minorBm
And he said, "Why do I do this?"
 DmDm          B minorBm
A augmentedA shiver through his body like a bottle of CC
DmDm          B minorBm
Not encouraging reality or me
DmDm          B minorBm
He said, "It's who I am, baby, back to it"
 DmDm          B minorBm
Off the deep end the record changed
 DmDm          B minorBm
You see, no one stood up and cheered for him
  DmDm          B minorBm
Everyone sat down with something that happened
 DmDm   B minorBm
Began to happen
DmDm      B minorBm
It's an old school dorm mystery
DmDm          B minorBm
And the handcuffs bleed

Chorus:

 DmDm       B minorBm
It's a glass-pipe murder
 DmDm    BB   A augmentedA  B minorBm
Glass-pipe murder, oh yeah
 DmDm     B minorBm
Glass-pipe murder
 DmDm    BB   A augmentedA  B minorBm
It's a glass-pipe murder, oh yeah
