Little Blue Pills by Jeff Rosenstock
Little Blue Pills
Capo:no capo
Verse 1:
D
Little blue pills
D
Bottles of codeine lying
Em Bm
On the shelf at dawn.
D
Sleeping soundly
D
With traffic gently humming
Em Bm
Down the boulevard.
Chorus:
G
I hate the morning light
D
Because with every night
G
A little earlier
Bm
It seems to get too bright
G
It squeezes through the blinds
D
Dissolves into my eyes
Em A
And I hate the sunny side.
Verse 2:
Calling good friends
And calling total strangers
Meet me at the bar.
Throw the card down
And leave the fucker open
Like I turned twenty-one.
Chorus (I guess?)
And when it's dark inside
I'll take a taxi ride
Down to the eastern side
Before it gets too bright
I pull the curtains down
I let my head spin round
And my ears ring over the sound.
My ears ring over the sound.
Verse 3:
I upped the dosage
and cleared my bank account
'til everything was gone.
Now the circles
around my eyes grow wider.
The lights are always on.
Chorus:
And every single night
I hold the covers tight
Until I toss and turn
And see the creeping light
I turn things off and on
and on and off and on.
Outro/bridge:
D C Bm A Em A
And I sleep for fifteen minutes like an infant 'til alarm clocks buzz
D C Bm A Em
Through the cracks of the windows from the neighboring apartment until I
A
wake up
D C Bm A Em
So I'll slip next paycheck into bottles brown and amber 'til it's all A
gone
D C Bm A Em
So I'll sleep next paycheck with the fitful fucking terror 'til it's all
A
gone.
Em A
All gone.
