Verse 1
G5 A5
I once heard a song about it never rains in Southern California
D5 Em
I once saw a band play at the Farm sober, I hadn’t had a drink
G5
Like cleaning gums or huggin’ bums
A5
Or doin’ something that you know’s good for ya
D5
Those times are tedious and tenuous
Em
And hopefully much shorter than a blink
Pre-Chorus
C5 G5 C5 Em
I’m so easy to deciphe, I could rationalize for life
C D Em
But from all the strife I caused, I gotta go without
C5 D5 G5 Em
Taking codones is insane, I don’t wanna kill I want more pain
C5 D5 G5
So like the California drought, I’m dryin’ out
Verse 2
G5 A5
I got the one job that it’s frowned upon if you’re not a user
D5 Em
The bands that are all sober are the ones playing the Warped and county fairs
G5 A5
I’ll go to a meeting and get called a loser
D5 Em
Then I get invited to a party from a bro who works at Bayer

My sponsor should be Ernie Ball or PBR not Pat from Petaluma

The chips I want are kale, corn, potato, and for betting on a flush

C5 D5
I think I may have broken my brain so I’m dryin’ out
