Intro  
Am  
  
Verse  
   Am  
Virginia was a "lot lizard" from F.L.A.  
                                    E  
She had a compound fracture in the "trunk"  
Am  
It started when she run away  
D                    F  
Thumbs out on the interstate  
    E                     Am  
She hitched a ride to misery  
  
w/verse  
"Mr. Whirly" had a catastrophic incident  
He fell into the city by the bay  
He liquidated his estate  
Now he sleeps upon the Haight  
Panhandling misery  
  
Chorus  
               E  
He's gonna get high  
          Am  
When he's low  
    E                      Am  
The fire burns from better days  
                E  
And she screams why  
       Am  
I said I don't know  
    D            F           E  
The catastrophic hymns from yesterday  
       Am  
Of misery  
  
w/verse  
Vinnie was a hustler out of Amsterdam  
He ran the drug cartel in "tinseltown"  
They found him in a Cadillac  
Bludgeoned with a baseball bat in the name  
Of misery  
  
w/verse  
Gina hit the road to New York City  
Mysteriously the night Vinnie croaked  
She stopped in Vegas to elope  
With Virginia and the dope  
And kissed the bride eternally  
  
w/Chorus  
And they're gonna get high  
When they're low  
The fire burns from better days  
And he screams why  
I said I don't know  
The catastrophic hymns from yesterday  
Of misery  
  
Bridge  
Dm                  E               Am  
Hell hounds on your trail now once again..boy  
     Dm              E            Am  
It's groping on your leg until it sleeps  
    Dm             E                   Am  
The emptiness will fill your soul with sorrow  
F                                             E  
Because it's not what you make, it's what you leave  
  
w/verse  
  
w/Chorus  
And we're gonna get high  
When I'm low  
The fire burns from better days  
And she screams why  
I said I don't know  
The catastrophic hymns from yesterday  
Of misery
