    G               A                      D                    A

  D                    G              D                      G
but none of the money we spend seems to do us much good in the end
      D       A

       D                          G                           D                   G
yeah the house and the jewels, the italian race car they don't make us feel better about who we are
    D                A                    D      Dsus4 D  A

down here where the watermelon grows so sweet
      Em                     Bm
where i worship the ground underneath of your feet
     G              A                D
we are experts in the art of frivolous spending
        D                     Am

    Em                          Bm
we're drunk all the time and our lives are a mess
      G                 A                         D                    A
and the deathless love we swore to protect with our bodies is stumbling across its bleak ending
  D                       G              D                     G
but none of the rage in our eyes seems to finish it off where it lies
    D             A
i got sugar in the fuel lines both of us do
        D                           G                         D                     G              
yeah, the fights and the lies that we both love to tell fail to send our love to its reward down in hell
