E
Mother I don't wanna take my medicine
E                                 A
24 years in the gutter again, I'm losing it
A
I'm losing it

E
Everybody's acting like they're all alright
E
I can barely get myself to sleep at night,
    A
I'm sick of it, yeah, I'm sick of it


[Chorus]
E                                                                   A
Yeah, they sent the taxman, I lost my job, and You got hooked on oxycodone
A
They shut the lights off, They took the car, and I bought a sawed-off shotgun
E                                                                   A
Yeah, they sent the taxman, I lost my job, and You got hooked on oxycodone
A
They shut the lights off, They took the car, and I bought a sawed-off shotgun


[Verse 2]
(For verse 2, recommend picking individual notes of the E and A chords where you see them)
E
I'd rather be crazy than to take these pills
E
I'm sick of being okay against my will
    A
I'm losing it, I'm losing it

E
Ain't a thing in this world that I'm gonna miss
E
It's all fake smiles and leather jackets
      A
We're full of it, yeah we're full of shit


[Bridge]
F#m     E           A
I don't know who to trust


[Chorus 2]
E                                                                   A
Yeah, they sent the taxman, I lost my job, and You got hooked on oxycodone
A
They shut the lights off, They took the car, and I bought a sawed-off shotgun
E                                                                   A
Yeah, they sent the taxman, I lost my job, and You got hooked on oxycodone
A
They shut the lights off, They took the car, and I bought a sawed-off shotgun
