[Intro]

F   C   Dm   
C   C   F
 
 
[Verse]

    F                    
Oh Father, forgive me for Β 
 C
what I have done
      Dm                 C         C7
Drove 200 miles for six inches of love
 
        F                    
And he shined like the neon in
      C
 the town's only bar
 Dm                      
Slick as the needle and 
 C                     C
slim as the scar
 
 
[Chorus]

       Bb                    
Oh, I lost friends to heroin, 
 C
plenty more to loving them
 
 F                 A7          
Strung out on the highway like 
    Dm
we couldn't read the signs
Bb                       C
Now that I am older and burned

 a little colder
 
   F           A7              Dm
I know how to read betwen the lines
 
        Bb              
But the only time I get 
              C
these guilty thoughts
                   F       Dm
Is when the pills wear off
 
     Bb                    C
And what I call a love affair
                               F    F
They say it was a death of despair
 
 
[Verse]

      F                    
They say I'll get over him, 
   C
I just need time
         Dm                  
I thank Jesus sent an Angel, 
       C              C7
stuck needles in his thigh  
 
         F                
And the old freight trains 
      C
they whistle and whine
      Dm                             
They shake the whole dang house like 
    C                      C
we did when he was alive  
 
 
[Chorus]

       Bb                    
Oh, I lost friends to heroin, 
 C
plenty more to loving them
 
 F                 A7        
Strung out on the highway like 
    Dm
we couldn't read the signs
Bb                      
Now that I am older and 
 C
burned a little colder
 
   F           A7              Dm
I know how to read betwen the lines
 
        Bb       
But the only time 
                    C
I get these guilty thoughts 
                   F
Is when the pills wear off

[Break]

    Gm                  
Oh mother, don't ask me 
     C
the things I have done 
    F          A7           Dm
So selfish to fall for yourself

 and someone
 
   Gm                  
I know that I want him 
     C
and always will
         F                   A7       
I don't think he could have known that 
        Dm
it was fentanyl  
 
Dm              Bb   
  But the only time 
                    C
I get these guilty thoughts
                   F       Dm
Is when the pills wear off
 
     Bb                    C
And what I call a love affair
                               F
They say it was a death of despair
 
    Bb              
The only time I get 
              C
these guilty thoughts
                  F          C   Dm   C    F
Is when the pills  wear off
