[Verse 1] Bm/E Sometimes you're better off dead Bm/E There's gun in your hand and it's pointing at your head Am7 You think you're mad, too unstable Am7 Kicking in chairs and knocking down tables Bm/E In a restaurant in a West End town Bm/E Call the police, there's a madman around Am7 Running down underground Am7 To a dive bar in a West End town

[Verse 2] Bm/E Too many shadows, whispering voices Bm/E Faces on posters, too many choices Am7 If, when, why, what? Am7 How much have you got? Bm/E Have you got it, do you get it, if so, how often? Bm/E And which do you choose, a hard or soft option? Am7 (How much do you need?)
