[D]
Down here where [Am] the heat's so fine, [Em] I'll drink to your [Bm] health and you drink to [D] mine.
As we try to [A] make the money we scored out [D] in Vegas hold out [A] for a while, [D] we drink [Am] vodka
from Russia, [Em] we get our [Bm] chocolates from Belgium.
[D] We have [A] our strawberries flown [D] in from England, but none of the money [Gm] we spent [D] seems to do
us much good in [G] the end.
[D] I got a cracked [A] engine block, both of [D] us do.
[A] [D] We got a house and the jewels, the Italian race car, they don't make us feel [G] better about
who we [D] are.
I got termites [A] in the framework, so [D] do you.
Down here where [Am] the watermelon grows so sweet, [Em] where I worship the ground [D] underneath of your feet.
We are experts [A] in the art of [D] frivolous spending.
[A] [D]
It's going on like [Am] this for three years I [Em] guess, and we're drunk all the [Bm] time and our
lives are a [G] mess.
I got the blood of the dead and the deathless, [A] love we swore to protect [D] with our bodies is
[A] stumbling across its bleak ending, [D] but none of the rage in our [G] eyes [D] seems to finish it
off where [G] it lies.
I got sugar [A] in the fuel lines, [D] both of us do.
[A] [D] Got the fights and the lies that [G] we both love to [D] tell, fail to send our love to its [Gm] reward
down in hell.
I [D] got pudding [A] for our backbone, [D] so do you.
La la la [G] la, [D]
hey hey.
