(A major)
(E minor) I've had (Fdim) back pain for (D major) most
Verse 1
of my life
(F sharp minor) And the (E major) most I ever did was
see the (G minor) doc
(D major) And the doc (E minor) told me (Fdim) that my
back was al (D major) right
(F sharp minor) He (E major) had initials in his shirt,
he had a (G minor) nice expensive watch
(D major) I thought he knew (E minor) what he was doing or
at (Fdim) least what was (F sharp minor) right
He made me (A flatdim) fill a piece of paper out
(G minor) with different questions all about
(D major) My health,
well (Fdim) being and the state of my (D major) life
I'll (G major) told the truth,
(D major) I'm only lying (A major) to myself if I should lie
(D major) So, I (E minor) answered everything and (Fdim) did my best
to (D major) keep it real (G major) in between the lines
(D major) I gave it (E minor) back to him,
he (Fdim) took his time and (D major) read the paper (G major) over once or twice
(D major) He (E minor) looked at me as if to (Fdim) say, "I
need (F sharp minor) to tell you something"
(G major) "And don't prepare (G minor) for me
to tell you something nice"
(D major) He (E minor) wanted to know just how
(F minor) much I tend to (F sharp minor) drink and smoke
I (G major) told him how (F sharp minor) it was and then he
(F sharp major) gave me this (B minor) ad vice
He said, "Ease up on stress,
you don't (G major) help yourself much"
"It's (E major) too intense for you to take,
(Gdim) you'll only (G minor) tense up"
(D major) "And you see you have these issues
and you (A major) struggle to relax"
"So you come see me the doctor
(B flatdim) to get something (F sharp major) for your back"
(B minor) "But this piece of paper (A major) tells me that there's
(G major) more that you should address"
"I see some anger in you,
plus addiction, plus the rest" (B minor)
(A major) "I feel like (G major) we should speak about this
'fore it comes first"
"And I know a lot of people who can help,
for what it's worth"
I said, (D major) "I don't know (E minor) if you don't understand,
man, my (Fdim) back just fucking (D major) hurts"
(F sharp minor) Do I need (E major) physiotherapy? Or
(G minor) is it something worse?
He (D major) paused and then he (C major) asked me what
(Fdim) I thought we should do
(D major) I said, (G major) "If I knew that, (D major) I wouldn't be here,
(F sharp major) man, I'm asking you" (B minor)
He handed (A major) me to someone who
(G major) gave me a blood test
Who handed me (C major) to someone else who (G major) took my payment
and took all of my fuck (G major) ing patience
I should add at this point the doctor had
already left
And I resented that man,
I (A major) never went back to him again (G major)
(D major) But you know,
in a weird (C major) way, I feel like maybe (Fdim) he was right (F sharp minor)
I (G major) may be using my back pain
(E major) to distract from the pain of life
(A major) Feel it all externally (F sharp major) when really
it's just inside
(B minor) Pro crastinating, con (A major) frontation,
every (G major) single time
So (D major) thank you Mr. Doctor
Man, I'm now being sincere
I guess I just didn't wanna hear what I didn't wanna
hear, okay (D major) (E minor) (F minor)
