You live out where the street ends

in a basement apt. with one of your friends

I can smell the bleach
DOadd9 SOL
that they use in the hall

It's seeping under the door
DOadd9 SOL
in across the floor
DOadd9 SOL
it's starting to hurt

barely alive
[Instrumental] (chords from the chorus)
[Last verse]
DOadd9 SOL DOadd9 SOL
Now we live out where the street ends

in a basement apt. just like our friends

'cause there's holes in all the bottles
RE DO
and my lungs hurt___|
[Repeat Chorus]
