Intro - picking on the G chord
GA young girl give me a Cgood luck charm.
Put a Esnake on my neck and a Cbird on my arm.
Got Gone good leg Ôcause the Cother went South.
Got a Ebrand new crutch and a Cbrand new mouth.G  
I got a Gsheriff's name branded where I Cshould have kept clean.
If you Eget too close you're going to Cknow what I mean.
And I Gknow when I'm old the only Crunnin' gonna come.
EAway from lips and the Cfork of my tongue.G  
It only Dgets to me in Ctimes like these.
And Etimes like these are Cgetting to me.G  
GPut your hand in the oven there's a Cheaven inside.
It Eburns straight through but the Cdevil don't mind.
Because he Gtakes what he wants and he Cfinds what you hide.
And it will Ebuy you a place on the CLower East Side.  ChildG  
I rolled a Gnumber last night and I Cwalked in my sleep.
I could Efeel all the nerves in the Ctips of my teeth.
As they Gcrumbled into dust and Cwashed into the sea.
Finally Eshut my mouth so I could Chear myself think.G  
It only Dgets to me in Ctimes like these.
It only Dgets to me in Ctimes like these.
It only Dgets to me in Ctimes like these.
And Etimes like these are Cgetting to me.
