Verse 1
F
They could prescribe you any illness you'd like
Bb
F
If you define the terms of your ailment s
You could sing a pretty malady
like a black canary
Bb
But a crow don't know the smell
C
of carbon monoxide
F
How many years have
you been on that couch
Bb
They could've quilt'd you
F
in the throws by now
You draw a line in the sand where
Fsus4
it ends and you begin
Bb
But the tide rolls in,
C
so who knows? Oh well
Bb
C
And a little identity nev er hurt nobody
Am
But lately you've been focusing
Dm
too much on yourself
Gm
So how many milligrams of you
C
are still left in there
Bb
C
Cause back in my day we didn't need no
Am
Dm
feel- good pills and no psychiat rists
Bb

No, we just drank ourselves to death, and god damn it,

F
Who makes the call? What's a symptom,
what's a flaw
Bb
Can it be both? Well I suppose
F
that's an an swer
Would you give up your humanity
for just a touch of sanity
Bb
Cause God knows it's
C
not like it's cancer
F
And good news to the purists: they've
discovered a cure
Bb
F
For the symp toms of being alive
It's a painless procedure
Eb
with a low rate of failure
Bb
C
But very few patients survive
Bb
C
And a little conformity nev er hurt nobody
Am
F
But lately I've been worried
Bb
that you're losing yourself
Gm
So how many milligrams of you
C
are still left in there
Bb
C
Cause back in my day we didn't need no
Am

Tell me "so it goes"

We depress to im press, I guess
Am
Dm
In layer after layer to get off our chests
Gm
It's cold out now,
we can take it off later
C
Better safe than sorry,
and we both know the danger
Dm
So doctor,
F
C
could you run an other test
Got a feeling that this time
F
I might just pass it
A
Well, if you raise the average
Bb
We'll all sing when
C
the bell curve rings
Am
Dm
In lyr ics symptomatic of the way we think
Gm
If our har monies don't sync,
we can change our voices
C
A chorus on condition of our diagnosis
Bb
C
Back in my day we didn't need no feel-
Am
Dm
good pills and no psychiat rists
Bb
What can I say,
C
Am
Dm
except don't heed no evil wills of moral ni hilists
Bb

I said, "Back in the days of lobotomies and

G
C
Ain't your you- dentity at stake
F
Does aspirin kill you with the pain
Dm
You're not your thoughts,
you're not your brain
G
You're just the character you've made
C
Up in your head, down in your heart
F
Dm
What seem like separate body parts
G
Come together to believe they're you
And not just chemistry
C
It's not the way that you were raised
F
Or what the advertisements say
Dm
G
Not what you pay for, what you pray for
What you want, or what you say
C
Am
And I see your tendency to
redefine disease by what you need
F
G
And I'm afraid I can't pre scribe
the diagnosis that you seek
C
And something tells me that you need
Am
F
Forgive me now if I misspeak
But something tells me that you like
G
F
And something tells me
F
G
You prefer
To be sitting there flipping through
those old issues of People
Well that's our time, see you next week
How did you like the song?
