[E] [A]
I'm a dope fiend, I don't sniff cocaine I [D] hear the walls ringing, my nose is still
[A] in pain [E] It's no one or a New York City [Am] community [A] penitent
I'm a dope fiend, shoulda seen me use the main line
Yeah, [D] shoulda seen me shoot that white [A] heroine
I [E] used to get the chills but now I'm burned [A] down my mind
Hey, hey, oh Lord, dope fiend, [Am] I dropped LSD
[D] I've seen Manhattan's towers, you got me in a [A] dirty league
[E] Ten years ago you shoulda took the elevator [A] up with me
I'm a dope fiend, you make it love me, call me gag at queen
[C] [D] I'm a fiend, you make me go mad, this is where I [A] never been
[A] But if your [E] mother sees my picture in the [C] paper, she'll say [Am] I look [A] big
I'm a dope fiend, I'm a dope fiend, I breathe sweet clean [Em] air
[D] I don't have sheets deep in my arm, nevermore I'm a dope fiend [A] everywhere
[E] I'm a dope fiend in the policeman's [G] eyes, yeah, [A] they wouldn't dare, dare, dare
I'm a dope fiend, the buzzfeed for dope fiend, I don't carry any shit around
I'm just a [Bm] dope fiend [D] by nature, I like to [F#m] sit on the ground
[E] All naked with my clothes on, making a [Am] plumetric sound
I'm a dope [A] fiend, I'm a dope fiend, I call the boss of this [Em] [Am] nation's mind
[D] They call it code LSD in their prayers, laughing gas in [A] the wind
[D] Aether and [E] Fioli form the drive now, [A] brain-ear blind
I'm a dope fiend, on almost only friendly grass
[D] Dopey, dopey, don't care about nothing, with arms out up [E] my ass
Hey all you dopey Jimmy, out [A] there in the middle of class
We are here for the dope king, when you gonna change your laws?
[D]
Beg for the dope king, join the bloodletting [Am] cause
[E] Join the legalize against everybody, right of change, [A] right?
Ooooooh
