Happiness, its been no friend to me
~#**************#~
But forever after aint what its all cracked up to be
~#**************#~
Yeah, I had a taste, you were my fantasy
~#**************#~
But I almost lost my faith when I hit reality
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
I dont need no guru to tell me what to do
~#**************#~
When youre feeling like a headline on
~#**************#~
Yesterdays news
~#**************#~
Come on, come on, come on
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Give me something for the pain
~#**************#~
Give me something for the blues
~#**************#~
Give me something for the pain when
~#**************#~
I feel Ive been dangling from a hang-mans noose
~#**************#~
Give me shelter from the rain
~#**************#~
Give me something I can use
~#**************#~
To get me through the night
~#**************#~
Make me feel all right
~#**************#~
Something like you
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Loneliness has found a home in me
~#**************#~
My suitcase and guitar are my only family
~#**************#~
Ive tried to need someone, like they needed me
~#**************#~
Well I opened up my heart, but all i did was bleed
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
I dont need no lover, just to get screwed
~#**************#~
They dont make a bandage, thats going to cover my bruise
~#**************#~
Come on, come on, come on
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Give me something for the pain
~#**************#~
Give me something for the blues
~#**************#~
Give me something for the pain when
~#**************#~
I feel Ive been dangling from a hang-mans noose
~#**************#~
Give me shelter from the rain
~#**************#~
Give me something I can use
~#**************#~
To get me through the night
~#**************#~
Make me feel all right
~#**************#~
Something like you
~#**************#~
Come on, come on, come on
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
Pull me under (help Im falling)
~#**************#~
Through my veins
~#**************#~
To a place
~#**************#~
Where i feel no pain
~#**************#~
Be the pillow under my head (night is calling)
~#**************#~
Cover me when Im in your bed
~#**************#~
Take me higher than Ive ever been(feels like Im flying)
~#**************#~
Take me down and back again
~#**************#~
Come to me, be my disguise (Christ, Im dying)
~#**************#~
Open your coat, let me crawl inside
~#**************#~
Come on, come on, come on
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Give me something for the pain
~#**************#~
Give me something for the blues
~#**************#~
Give me something for the pain when
~#**************#~
I feel Ive been dangling from a hang-mans noose
~#**************#~
Give me shelter from the rain
~#**************#~
Give me something I can use
~#**************#~
To get me through the night
~#**************#~
Make me feel all right
~#**************#~
Something like you
~#**************#~
Give me something for the pain
~#**************#~
Give me something for the blues
~#**************#~
Give me something for the pain when
~#**************#~
I feel Ive been dangling from a hang-mans noose
~#**************#~
Give me shelter from the rain
~#**************#~
Give me something I can use
~#**************#~
To get me through the night
~#**************#~
Make me feel all right
~#**************#~
Something like you
~#**************#~
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
~#**************#~
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
~#**************#~
Gimme
~#**************#~
Give me something for the pain
~#**************#~
Gimme
~#**************#~
Give me something for the blues
~#**************#~
Gimme
~#**************#~
Got to give me something for the pain, baby
~#**************#~
Gimme
