Dm
Watch your mouth
Am
Oh, oh, oh
       Em
Because your speech is slurred enough
F
That you just might swallow your tounge
 Dm             Am            Em
I'm sure you'd want to give up the ghost
          F
with just a little more poise than that
Dm      Am                  Em
Or was it God who chokes in these situations?
F                                 Dm
Running Late? No no, he called in.
    Am                      Em
Or was it God who chokes in these situations?
F                                Gm
Running late? No no, he called in----

                      F
The hospice is a relaxing weekend getaway
     Em                               Gm
where you are a cut above all the rest
                                       F
sick and sad patients on first name basis
            Em              Eb
with all the top physicians


Dm           F
Perscribed Pills
               Gm
to offset the shakes
                Eb
to offset the pills         [Chorus]
              Dm
you know you should
   F                Gm  Eb
take it a day at a time

[Dm]

Dm                Am                       Em
That's when you stu-stu-stutter something profound
               F
To the support on the line
      Dm                     Am
And with the way you've been talking
     Em                    F
every word gets you a step closer to hell.
Dm                Am                       Em
That's when you stu-stu-stutter something profound
               F

      Dm                     Am
And with the way you've been talking
     Em                    Gm
every word gets you a step closer to hell.


[Chorus x2]

Gm   F                  Em
I am alone in this bed, house and head
Gm              F           Em
she never fixes this but at least she
Gm   F        Em
I am alone in this bedromm
Gm              F           Eb
She never fixes that but at least she...


[Chorus x2]

Gm                 F
The hospice is a relaxing weekend getaway
     Em                               Gm
where you are a cut above all the rest
                                       F

            Em              Eb
