(1)Virginia was a lot lizard from F.L.A.
[F]
She had a compound fracture in the trunk
[Bbmi]
It started when she ran away
[Ebmi] [F#]
Thumbs out on the interstate
[F] [Bbmi]
She hitched a ride to misery
[Bbmi]
(2)Mr. Whirly had a catastrophic incident
[F]
He fell into the city by the bay
[Bbmi]
He liquidated his estate
[Ebmi] [F#]
Now he sleeps upon the Haight
[F] [Bbmi]
Panhandling misery
[F]
(R1)And he's gonna get high, high, high
[Bbmi]
When he's low, low, low
[F] [Bbmi]
The fire burns from better days
[F]
And she screams, «Why, oh why ?»
[Bbmi]
I said, «I don't know»
[Ebmi] [F#] [F]
The catastrophic hymns from yesterday
[Bbmi]
Of misery
[Bbmi]
(3)Vinnie was a hustler out of Amsterdam
[F]
He ran the drug cartel in Tinsel town
[Bbmi]
They found him in a cadillac
[Ebmi] [F#]
Bludgeoned with a baseball bat
[F] [Bbmi]
In the name of misery
[Bbmi]
(4)Gina hit the road to New York City
[F]
Mysteriously the night Vinnie croaked
[Bbmi]
She stopped in Vegas to elope
[Ebmi] [F#]
With Virginia and the dope
[F] [Bbmi]
And kissed the bride eternally
[F]
(R2)And they're gonna get high, high, high
[Bbmi]
When they're low, low, low
[F] [Bbmi]
The fire burns from better days
[F]
And she screams, «Why, oh why ?»
[Bbmi]
I said, «I don't know»
[Ebmi] [F#] [F]
The catastrophic hymns from yesterday
[Bbmi]
Of misery
[F#] [F] [Bbmi]
(I)Hell hounds on your trail now once again boy
[F#] [F] [Bbmi]
It's groping on your leg until it sleeps
[F#] [F] [Bbmi]
The emptiness will fill your soul with sorrow
[F#] [F]
'Cause it's not what you make, it's what you leave
[F]
(R3)And we're gonna get high, high, high
[Bbmi]
When we're low, low, low
[F] [Bbmi]
The fire burns from better days
[F]
And she screams, «Why, oh why ?»
[Bbmi]
I said, «I don't know»
[Ebmi] [F#] [F]
The catastrophic hymns from yesterday
[Bbmi]
Of misery
