I saw her today at the reception
5 6 6 6 -5 5 -3
A glass of wine in her hand
5 6 6 <-5 6 -5 6 -5 5 6 -3
I knew she was gonna meet her connection,

to get our fair share of abuse--,
5 5 6 6 <-5 6 -5 5 6 -3
Singing, "We gonna vent our frustration"

I was standing in line with your friend Jimmy
5 6 6 6 6 -5 5 -5 -3
And man, did he look pretty ill--
5 5 6 6 6 6 6 -5 5 -5 -3
We decided that we would have a soda-,

I sing this song to my friend, Jimmy,

And he said one word to me and that was "dead"
5 5 6 6 6 6 -5 5 -5 -3

5 5 6 6 6 6 -5 5 6 -3
I could tell by her blood-stained hands
