[Verse 1]
G/C#                       G/C    G
    There's a guy from the Sun Tribune
G/C#                          G/C         G                Em
    Staking out my house in a Chevy Impala since yesterday noon
G/C#                         G/C       G
    Should I speak to him or just stay quiet?
G/C#                               G/C           G           Em
    They hear the whistle blow and out pours the blood of my child


[Chorus 1]
Am         D
   Tablespoon of codeine
Am                 D
   Will put you right to bed
Bm                    Em
   I don't want any more codeine
Am                      D     C
Wanted to make it on my own tonight
   D     C
My own tonight


[Verse 2]
G/C#                           G/C      G  
    So I said some things that can't be said
G/C#                          G/C      G            Em
    About a ritual tower that uses of more American dead
G/C#                        G/C          G     
    And what happened in September was a fake
G/C#                        G/C         G            Em  
    But they're chasing demolition or remote control planes


[Chorus 2]
Am         D
   Tablespoon of codeine
Am                 D
   Will put you right to bed
Bm                    Em
   I don't want any more codeine
Am                      D     C
Wanted to make it on my own tonight
   D     C
My own tonight


[Verse 3]
G/C#                     G/C       G
    Whatever you do you have to commit
G/C#                        G/C              G          Em
    And whatever you do you have to put your blood into it
G/C#                           G/C      G
    So I said some things that can't be said
G/C#                 G/C           G        Em
    From the FA  the empty desk of Alan Armistead

 
[Chorus 3]
Am         D
   Tablespoon of codeine
Am                 D
   Will put you right to bed
Bm                    Em
   I don't want any more codeine
Am                      D     C
Wanted to make it on my own tonight
   D     C
My own tonight
