[Ab] Do you remember a guy that's [Fm] been, been such a nice little soul?
[Db]
I've heard [Fm] a rumor from God [Eb] and truth.
Oh no, don't say it's true.
[Gb] They got a message from the actual man.
[Db]
I'm [Fm] happy, hope you're happy [Gb] too.
I've left all [Ab] unneeded love, saw [Am] the empty [F] town smiling.
[Bb]
The shaking of nothing is killing, [F] just bits of chap, girls and synthesis.
And [Ab] I ain't got no money and I ain't [Eb] got no house.
I've spent so much money in [Gb] my life, but I'm hoping to kick back.
This planet is [Db] glowing, glowing, [Fm] glowing, glowing, glowing.
[Gb]
Ashes to [Ab] ash and funk to [Db] funky.
Leave no old [Bbm] maid to talk to junky.
[Gb] Strung out in [Ab] heaven's high, giving that all-time low.

[Ab] Time and again I tell myself, [Fm]
I'll stay clean tonight.
[Db] But the little green wings are [Fm] [Eb] following me.
Oh no, not again.
[Gb]
I'm stuck with a valuable friend.
[Db] I'm happy, [Fm]
hope you're [Gb] happy too.
One flash of [Ab] light, like no [F] smoking pistol.
[Bb] I've never done good [F] things.
I've never done bad [Ab] things.
I've never did anything.
[Eb]
I've never [Gb] done anything.
[Db]
[Fm]
[Gb] I'm anxious to [Ab] ashes, funk to funky.
[Db] Leave no old maid [Bbm] to talk to [Gb] junky.
Strung out in [Ab] heaven's high, giving that [Db] all-time [Ab] low.

[Eb] My mama said, [Bb] forget what you've done.
[Ab] You better have a [Eb] sweet lady to talk.
[Bb] My mama said, [Ab] forget what you've [Eb] done.
You better have a sweet [Bb] lady to talk.
[Ab] My mama said, [Eb] forget [Ebm] what you've done.
