verse
D#m F#
you’ll be happy to know
G# B
the situation is worse
D#m F#
the endless bottles of pills
G# B
that never seem to work
D#m F#
sleeping in his clothes
G# B
and still looking his best
D#m F#
he’s so high in the tomb
G# B
you wouldn’t know he’s dead

chorus
D#m F# G# B ( optional : slide down one fret to A# )
you look like you could use a rest
D#m F# G# B ( A# )
you look like you’d be better dead

verse
D#m F#
they’re making requests
G# B
for songs that you never play
D#m F#
and the sanity lost
G# B
is worth the money paid
D#m F#
how does it feel
G# B
to be what you sing about
D#m F#
we all came to applaud
G# B
but the ghost said you’d long checked out

chorus
D#m F# G# B ( A# )
you look like you could use a rest
D#m F# G# B ( A# )
you look like you’d be better dead

verse
D#m F#
you’ll be happy to know
G# B
the situation is worse
D#m F#
the endless bottles of pills
G# B
that never seem to work
D#m F#
she’s keeping receipts
G# B
on all that you’ve done wrong
D#m F#
your selfish efforts were cheap
G# B
and have lasted far too long

chorus
D#m F# G# B ( A# )
you look like you could use a rest
D#m F# G# B ( A# )
you look like you’d be better dead
D#m F# G# B ( A# )
you look like you could use a rest
D#m F# G# B ( A# )
you look like you’d be better dead
