[C]  [Am]   [Em]   [F]  [G]  [C]  Verse 1
[C]All this talk of gettin' old
it's gettin' me [Am]down my love
like a cat in a [Em]bag
waiting to [F]drow[G]n
[G]this time I'm [C]coming down
Verse 2
[C]and I hope you're thinking of me
as you lay down [Am]on your side
now the drugs don't [Em]work
they just make you [F]worse

now the drugs don't [Em]work
they just make you [F]worse
but I [G]know I'll see your [C]face again
Verse 3
[C]But I know I'm on a losing streak
cause I passed down [Am]my old street
and if you wanna [Em]show
then just let me [F]know

now the drugs don't [Em]work
they just make you [F]worse
but I [G]know I'll see your [C]face again

Verse 4
[C]All this talk of gettin' old

(Original Demo Lyrics)
(Note "drug make ME worse" - pre-commercial/sanitized version)
All this talk of growin' old
is gettin' me down my love
like a cat in a bag
waiting to drown
I know I'm coming down
and I hope you're thinking of me
as you lay down inside
now the drugs don't work
they just make me worse
but I know I'll see your face again
cause baby ooohhhh
if heaven calls I'm coming too
and baby ooohhhh
if heaven calls I'm with you
But I know I'm on a losing streak
I passed down my old street
and if you wanna stop
then give me a shout
and I'll come running down
you know I will
But the drugs don't work
they just make me worse
and I know I'll see your face again
cause baby ooohhhh
if heaven calls I'm coming too
cause baby ooohhhh
if heaven calls I'm coming too
Just like you said
I'm better dead, when I ain't got you
Just like you said
I'm better dead, when I ain't got you
but if you wanna show
then just let me know
and I'll sing in your ear again
but the drugs don't work
they just make me worse
but I know I'll see your face again
like a cat in a bag
waiting to drown
I know I'm coming down
now the drugs don't work
they just make me worse
and I know I'll see your face again

TrueRocke (report)

see sandercoe at youtube, he adds the third fret high e to the C and F chords in chorus and verse. F in bridge is "full" F.
Also, lift second finger of C and first finger of Am (listen to song to get the pattern).
