             Oh yeah...
             Alright...

             Somebody's Heine is crowding my ice box
             Somebody's cold one is giving me chills
             Guess I'll just close my eyes
             Oh yeah... alright...
             Feels good... inside...

             Flip on the tele, wrestle with Jimmy
             Something is bubbling behind my back
             The bottle is ready to blow

                 C#m G# A                E
                               Say it ain't so
                               Your drug is a heartbreaker
                               Say it ain't so
                               Your drug is a heartbreaker
                               Say it ain't so
                               My love is a lifetaker
                                                          C#m G# A E (x2)

             I can't confront you - I never could do
             That which might hurt you, so try and be cool when I say
             This way is a waterslide away from me that takes you further every day
             So be cool

                               Say it ain't so
                               Your drug is a heartbreaker
                               Say it ain't so
                               Your drug is a heartbreaker
                               Say it ain't so
                               My love is a lifetaker

                                              B       B/Bb B      B/Bb
                                                 Dear Daddy, I write you
                                              E                 G
                                                 In spite of years of silence
                                                 You've cleaned up - found Jesus
                                                 Things are looking good or so I hear
                                                 This bottle of Steven's
                                                 Awakens ancient feelings
                                                 Like father, stepfather
                                                                                            C#m
                                                 The son is drowning in the flood
                                              G#       A                E
                                                 Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah
                                                                *Solo*     C#m G# A E (x2)

                               Say it ain't so
                               Your drug is a heartbreaker
                               Say it ain't so
                               Your drug is a heartbreaker
                               Say it ain't so
                               My love is a lifetaker
                                                          C#m G# A E (x2)

Tune down 1/2 step if you want to play the bridge. Slide or hammer down on the C#m (bar across the 4th fret, strum, and "hammer" the rest of the fingers down to make a C#m chord). Slide into the E on the 7th fret. The verses are played with clean sound, the chorus and bridge with distortion. The chords in the chorus and bridge are only strummed half-way (the E, A, and D strings).












What a long strange trip it's been!
