Title: The Drugs Don't Work
Written by: Verve
Performed by: Ben Harper
Tabbed by: Justin Muscio

This song is mostly chords, but there is a little variation so I went
ahead and tabbed it:

The strumming pattern is approximate. You might have to listen to the
album if you want to learn it absolutely perfectly, but I play it this
way and it sounds pretty good. This pattern continues through all the
verses, or if you prefer just chords:

C                                            Am
All this talk of getting old it's getting me down my love

                Em             F          G        C           G  C
Like a cat in a bag waiting to drown this time I'm coming down

                                                 Am
And I know you're thinking of me as you lay down on your side

                    Em                      F           G
Now the drugs don't work they just make you worse but I know I'll see 

     C            G  C
your face  again



and similarly for the other verses.


Chorus:

        F     Em            Am               G
So baby ooooooooh if heaven calls I'm coming too

              F Em                 Am                  G
Just like you said if you leave my life I'm better off dead



And that's pretty much it. Enjoy!
