So I wrote this with Noel McKay.
It's a country song about substance abuse.
I know that hadn't been done before.
We thought we'd go out on a limb with this one.
Are you still taking [G] them pills?
[E] Are they still giving [A] you thrills?
Does your coke still sound [G] like a Morocco
When you're [D] walking up and down around the Tennessee hill?
[A] The prescription that you're taking [G] to the pharmacist
Is written [E] on a stack of twenty dollar [A] bills.
[D] Are you still taking [A] them pills?
Hey, I remember back when we used to take them
And we'd feel them start to kicking in
At first we'd feel them [D] tingle
Then we'd feel it prickle like there's something crawling on your [A] skin.
I think they almost made us feel a little happy
I think they nearly made us feel [E] like we belong
[A] They'd sit us working on something [D] for an entire day
[E] Then we would talk about it [A] all night long.
Are you still [G] taking them pills?
Are they still [A] giving you thrills?
Do you still feel [G] like you're getting brought in
By a [D] hundred thousand nasty little [E] porcupine quills?
[A] Well, your mind is like a cyclone eating satisfaction
But it empties out as quick as it fills.
[D] Oh, [Bm] are you still [A] taking them pills?
[G]
[Am] [A] [G]
[D] [E] [A] [G]
[F#] [A] [D] [E]
[F#m] [E] [A] There ain't a strange way that time can change a person
Just yesterday it seems like we [E] were getting high
I've been clean for [D] years but to be completely honest
[E] I still think about it all the time
[A] But wait, I think you don't remember how you know me
I've got to say that you don't really [E] seem the same
[F#] Hey, y'all, [D] cause by the look that's on your face
I see you wonder how [A] I even know your name
Are you [G] still taking them pills?
Are they [D] still giving [A] you thrills?
Outside there's a thin [G] man staring at you
Can't you [D] see I'm leaning on you with the same
[F#] The [Bm] paper that you're pushing up, the daisies [A] and the daffodils
[D] Oh, are you [A] still taking them pills?
Oh, [D] are you [A] still taking them pills?
