i just found me a bottle of blues 
some strange comfort for a soul to soothe 
ain't it hard ain't it hard, 
to want somebody who doesn't want you  
 
and i've been waiting for a year, a day 
some strange weather must be blowin' my way 
cause i got no mind to go or to stay, 
or be left behind  
 
F                               E 
holdin' hands with an impotent dream 
F                      E 
in a brothel of fake energy 
F                               G#  
put a nickel in the graveyard machine 
      D9           G#   
i get higher and lower 
      D9           G#   
i get higher and lower 
       D9                 D#          D9  
like a tired soldier with nothin' to shoot 
     F          D9                  C 
and nowhere to lose this bottle of blues  
 
egos drone and pose alone 
like black balloons all banged and blown 
on a backwoods river the infidels shiver 
in the stench of belief 
i tell my momma i'm a hundred years late 
i'm over the rails and out of the race 
and the crippled psalms of an age that won't thaw 
are ringing in my ears  
 
holdin' hands with an impotent dream 
in a brothel of fake energy 
put a nickel in the graveyard machine 
i get higher and lower 
i get higher and lower 
like a tired soldier 
with nothin' to shoot 
and nowhere dreams it's a.. 
bottle of blues  
 
(repeat first verse) 
 
holdin' hands with an impotent dream 
in a brothel of fake energy 
put a nickel in the graveyard machine 
i get higher and lower 
i get higher and lower 
like a tired soldier 
with nothin' to shoot 
and nowhere dreams it's a..
