[Verse]

  D/F#
I made myself strong
   F#m 
By getting my skin numb
    E 
And loosening up the thumbs 
   F#m
By pumping out the black tar water 

  D/F#
I made myself real
   F#m 
By ripping up magazines
    E 
And staving off disease
   F#m 
By pumping out the black tar water

  D
I made my friends leave 
     F#m
With tightrope at their knees 
    E
And laughing when they sneeze 
    F#m
I’m throwing up the black tar, black tar water 

  D            
I start to tell it wrong 
      F#m
While singing in a song 
      E
Where robbers held up guns 
        F#m
They’re shooting out the black tar water

Dripping off follicles

Seeping out my pores

Filling up my lungs

Oh my my
