A                           B
Talk to a man just to get a little work
         G                              A
Then you talk to the hand just to get a little jerk
A                                B
Some people die, then they start to get old
    G                            A
But I don't want to die upon the threshold

A                          B

G                                                      A

Every little shit gotta find his salt lick
     G                                A
If I don't find my babe, I'm gonna be junk sick
A                                  B
Roll away the rock so I can get to my ascension
G                                    A

   A                          B
We got on my bike and we rode to the sea
  G                         A
I stood on the dock and you got on your knees
A                     B
Grand Marnier and a pocket full of speed
   G                      A
We did it all day 'til we started to bleed


(Weird Guitar)
Are you feeling apprehensive?


A                         B
I can leap higher than an old king toad
     G              A
I do 185 on the new ring road
A                             B
I love a blue girl and I like my grog
       G                            A
It's a black and white world, cuz I'm a Scorpio dog

Have drink, press button, seventh floor
    G                            A
And wait a hundred years for the elevator door
A                    B
Come a time when you gotta lose the tension
G                          A

Lesson *1: This is where Lesson-a-week stops being just tabs and turns into actual lessons. 

In the 2nd verse the guitar changes a bit. The chords are still the same, but you play with the "low e" string open after strumming the chord 5 times. 

For example, You play the A chord like this

And so on.
