They Speak Of My Drinking But Never Of My Thirst

	  		     THEY SPEAK OF MY DRINKING, BUT NEVER OF MY THIRST - The Menzingers 

Tuning: Standard 

Definitely a simplified version of this song, but if you wanted to play along, you could  
just play everything as powerchords and that'd be all of the rhythm guitars parts.

They're planning on pushing their cure for the truth

We're the Disneyland dope-fiends, it's a small world 
             C#m 
When they're praying up to your pills

Generation serotonin: balanced and free

Sending praise to "The Molecule'

My doctor says, "Don't worry son, its just a trial run,

You'll feel much better when it's said and done.

Who am I to say? I'm probably drunk... 
E                         C#m 
My cure works for me, but I can barely breath 
E 
While the market research is showing off her new tits, 
   C#m 
Executives' jaws fall to the floor 
E 
"Well, we've finally got the new data and the good news is 
           C#m 
they don't think for themselves anymore"

My doctor says, "Don't worry son, they'll get ya when they come 
    G#m                A            B 
But you can hold on forever but the devil's won

And      forget the cost     the market is hot
