Mama got depressed
When Daddy was a-dying
A
So the doctor gave her something
To help her with her crying
F#m
Then she couldn't sleep
So he gave her something else
A
Now there's yellow, red and pink
On her bathroom shelf
D
Says if one don't work
F#m
Then another one will
D
If you got a little hurt
A
You take a little pill
F#m
Fella down the road
Walks with a limp
A
He's a decorated soldier
And a pain pill pimp
F#m
Got a loaded gun
And an old pit bull
A
A black Cadillac
With a whole trunk full
D
Says if one don't work
F#m
Then another one will
D
If you got a little hurt
A
You take a little pill
C#m
Lay on your tongue
D
Ain't a nerve that can't be numb
A C#m
Ain't a buzz that you can't buy
D
Ain't a low you can't make high
Bm
Til it wears off
F#m
Like it always will
D
And when it does
A
You take a little pill
F#m - A
Woah
F#m - A
Woah
F#m
You don't need a needle
You don't need a vein
A
No burn like whiskey
No cross like cocaine
F#m
If you ever lose a lover
Or you wanna lose some weight
A
What you can't cure
You can medicate
D
If one don't work
F#m
Then another one will
D
If you got a little hurt
A
You take a little pill
C#m
Lay on your tongue
D
Ain't a nerve that can't be numb
A C#m
Ain't a buzz that you can't buy
D
Ain't a low you can't make high
Bm
Til it wears off
F#m
Like it always will
D
And when it does
A
You take a little pill
F#m - A
Woah
F#m - A
Woah
