Am 
D 
It's a   little too fast for me

Abdim 
If it was in a real

glass on ice
C 
D 
But this bottle feels just right
G 
I'm on skid row with my mind
I don't mind this hotel,

C 
D

She hasn't found a way to
Am 
D

So I get up, shower and shave
By the

U        .S .A. today
G 
And on my way to work
I slip a bum a five
C 
I got proof of my success
C#dim 
On my office   wall and desk

To describe the way I feel inside,
