Am   C
When my life goes down the drain
                                G
And I've got no one left to blame
N.C.                   Am   C
And I always have this pain
                           G
Sick of playin' this old game

[Verse 1]
G                              Am
Oh, my head is swollen and I'm sore with bloodshot eyes
  G                             Am
I got this reposession, such a thorn up in my side
G
Come on down, the price is high
      Am
We'll take away your dreams
      G
We'll steal up all your money
  Am
Along with your dignity

[Pre-Chorus]
C               Am
And it gets so rough

[Chorus]
                             Am   C
When my life goes down the drain
                                G
And I've got no one left to blame
N.C.                   Am   C
And I always have this pain
                           G
Sick of playin' this old game

[Verse 2]
G                            
Poppin' pills don't pay the bills
       Am
Can't smoke it all away
G                                                  
Can't press rewind, can't change time
    Am
I'm livin' it day to day
   G
No walkin' to the bank today
      Am
Don't answer my telephone
   G
I know it's the bloodsucking leeches
    Am
The bill collectin' greedy ho's

[Pre-Chorus]
C                       Am
And it gets so rough

[Chorus]
                             Am   C
When my life goes down the drain
                                G
And I've got no one left to blame
N.C.                   Am   C
And I always have this pain
                           G
Sick of playin' this old game

[Bridge]
G
So charge it up, charge it up
Am
Ain't got no cash today
G
Charge it up, charge it up
Am
Plastic's the American way

[Pre-Chorus]
C                       Am
And it gets so rough

[Chorus]
                             Am   C
When my life goes down the drain
                                G
And I've got no one left to blame
                         Am   C
And I always have this pain
                           G
Sick of playin' this old game
