I checked into a bargain priced room on la sienaga,
F#m                                    A        E
gazed out through the curtains of the parking lot.
                                            C#m
walked down to the corner store just before nightfall in my bare feet.
F#m                   A           E
   black tarry asphalt, soft and hot.
            A                             E
and when I came back I spread out my supplies.
        D
on the counter by the sink, 
            B
I looked myself right in the eyes
                   E      A
st. joseph's baby aspirin,
             B
bartles and james,
     E           A     B  E
and you or your memory.

I ducked behind the drapes when I saw the moon begin to rise,
F#m                      A                     E
gathered in my loose ends switched off the light.
                                                C#m
and down there in the dark I can see the real truth about me.
  F#m           A                             E
as clear as day, lord if I make it through tonight
            A       E         D                            B
then I will mend my ways and walk the straight path to the end of my days.
                   E       A
st. joseph's baby aspirin,
             B
bartles and james,
     E           A      B  E  A  B  E  A  B  E  A  B  E  A   B  E.
and you or your memory.
