Verse

G Gadd9 G C

I saw her today at the reception,

I knew she was gonna meet her connection,

G Gadd9 G C

at her feet was a footloose man

I went down to the Chelsea Drug Store,

G Gadd9 G C

to get your prescription filled

I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy

and man did he look pretty ill

G Gadd9 G C

We decided we would have a soda,

my favorite flavour: cherry red

I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy,

G Gadd9 G C

and he said one word to me and that was "dead"
