 Em When I was seven years old G I saw a dead man in the road D Outside the liquor store G A few blocks from my school Em Well he was cold and he was warm G He looked the damn same as before D Except for something in the eyes G And a bit of drool Chorus: C D Well people die every day G G/B Em I wouldn't have it any other way C I just think they should feel good while they B are alive C D I went to school I got good grades G G/B Em I don't know you want me to say C D G Tell me faster 'cause you're running out of time C D G Em I wanted to help people Am D G Em I thought that I could save the sick Am D And if it's all the same to you G G/B Em There's one more thing I gotta do C Because with god as my witness You corporate fucking prick D B I did not become a doctor just to suck Em the devil's dick I made it though all four years And then almost a decade more I asked the right questions And never even really got bored They hired me in my hometown And then again when I moved away People liked me back then What can I say? It was the government The companies, bureaucracy The lobbyists, the congressmen, and lies They trickled into both my ears And got louder over the years Until all that I could hear was fucking flies Well, people die every day I wouldn't have it any other way I just think they should feel okay while they're alive How could they ever feel okay When things are more and more this way? Sometimes it's like they'd rather die Chorus: I fucking helped people I thought that I could do the trick And if it's all the same to you There's one more thing I got to do Because with god as my witness You corporate piece of shit I did not become a doctor just to suck the devil's dick You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  B  C  D  Em  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
