I saw her today at the reception 
G                       C 
A glass of wine in her hand 
   G                               C 
I knew she was gonna meet her connection 
        G                     C 
And her feet was a foot-loose man 

      G                        C

I went down to demonstration to get my fair share of abuse 
       G                           C 
Singing we gonna vent our frustration 
       G                             C 
If we don't we gonna blow a fifty amp fuse

I went down to the Chelsea Drugstore to get your prescription filled 
         G                    C 
I was standing in line with Mr Jimmy 
     G                     C 
And man did he look pretty ill 
     G                           C 
We decide that we would have a soda 
G                          C 
My favorite flavor, cherry red 
        G            C 
I song my song to Mr Jimmy 
        G                                C 
And he said one word to me and that was dead
