[Verse 1]
D I'm Gtaking some time now every day to Bmwalk around the block
And see what's new so EmI'm not surprised when
D I'm Grunning out of time in this fast city, you'd Bmbetter run quick
Or you're running late or Emrunning into me
D City GHall's locked up no one's getting in no one's Bmcoming out
No one gives a damn about Empolitics anymore D
You say your Gmind's messed up we've got medicine, pills for Bmaches and pains
If you're feeling ill, take a few Emof these and a bottle for the road D
[Pre-Chorus]
GI don't have a friend who will Bmpromise everything
And then Cbreak each and every Gword
I don't have a friend who will Bmtax me when I work
And then Ctax me once more when I Gspend
[Chorus]
GOh yeah, good Bmfriends won't rip you off but you're Cgovernment probably will G
Oh yeah, good Bmfriends won't piss you off but you're Cgovernment probably will G
[Verse 2]
I'm Gtaking a break every yesterday to eBmxamine my life
And the way I've lived it and Emhow I'm comfortable
D GIn search of the life of luxury, we forBmget our dreams
And what they mean to Emfind what we don't need
D And I Gsee the lights they light up the night, so Bmmuch you can't
Even see the stars, unEmless they happen to be on the TV Dscreen
And the Groads cracked up, we're still driving them, and the Bmlake
Dried up, we're still fishing for any Emcompliment a person canD get
[Pre-Chorus]
GI don't have a friend who will Bmdrop minimum wage
While Craising the tuition Grates
I don't have a friend who will Bmtax judge what I am worth
By my Cincome in a fiscal Gyear

Oh yeah, good Bmfriends won't piss you off but you're Cgovernment probably will G
