riff 1 2X

[D] I[G] don't [D]know [G] just [D]where I'm [G]going[D] [G]

    D        G         D           G            D<---- end of riff 1, strum

But I'm gonna try for the kingdom if I can this chord, and the

G D rest of the chords

Cos it makes me feel like I'm a man

When I put a [G]spike into my [D]vein

And I tell ya [G]things aren't quite the [D]same when you hit the word

G D "know" at the end of the

When I'm rushing on my run verse, the D chord marks the

G D beginning of riff 1 again,

And I feel just like Jesus' son which contintues until the

G D "nullify" in the next verse.

And I guess that I just don't know this pattern continues thru

G D G D G the whole song.

And I guess that I just don't know

[D]I [G] have [D]made[G] a big de[D]cision[G] [D]

[D] [G] [D] [G] [D]

I'm gonna try to nullify my life

Cos when the [G]blood begins to [D]flow

And it [G]shoots up the dropper's [D]neck

When I'm [G]closing in on [D]death

riff2 2X

You can't [G]help me not you [D]guys

Oh, all you sweet [G]girls with all your sweet [D]talk

You can [G]all go take a [D]walk

And I [G]guess that I just don't [D]know

And I [G]guess that I just don't [D]know[G] [D] [G]

[D]I [G] wish[D] that [G] I was b[D]orn a thousand y[G]ears ago[D] [G]

[D]I [G] wish[D] that [G] I'd sailed the dark[D]ened seas

On a [G]great big clipper [D]ship

Going from [G]this land here to [D]that

Oh, in a [G]sailor's suit and [D]cap

riff2 2X

Away [G]from the big [D]city

Where a [G]man can not be [D]free

Of all the [G]evils of this [D]town

And of him[G]self and those a[D]round

Oh, and I [G]guess that I just don't [D]know

Oh, and I [G]guess that I just don't [D]know[G] [D] [G]

[D]Her_[G]____[D]oin,[G] it'll be t[D]he death of [G]me[D] [G]

[D]Her_[G]____[D]oin,[G] it's [D]my wife, and it'[G]s my life

Because a [G]mainline in my [D]vein

Leads to a [G]center in my [D]head

And then I'm [G]better off as [D]dead

riff2 4X

Cos when the [G]smack begins to [D]flow

Oh, I [G]really don't care any[D]more

'Bout all the [G]jim-jims in this [D]town

And all the poli[G]ticians making crazy [D]sounds

And everybody [G]puttin' everybody else [D]down

And all the dead [G]bodies piled up in [D]Nam

riff 2 4x

Cos when the [G]smack begins to [D]flow

And I [G]really don't care any[D]more

riff 2 2x

When that hero[G]in is in my [D]blood

And the [G]blood is in my [D]head

Then I thank [G]God that I'm as good as [D]dead

And thank your [G]God that I'm not a[D]ware

And thank [G]God that I just don't [D]care

And I [G]guess that I just don't [D]know

And I [G]guess that I just don't [D]know[G] [D] [G]
