[Intro]
Em Em Em Em
X2
Em Em Em B7

[Verse 1]
Em
Let's go down the rabbit hole
Em B7
On these streets is where I roam
Em
Got my pack and paper sign
Em B7
Spend my money buyin' time
Em
I say, "All I need is 50 cents"
Em B7
Got no bills, don't pay no rent
Em
Got no home, life is cheap
Em B7
Behind the dumpster where I sleep

[Pre-Chorus]
Em
But, oh, my God, look at my sin
Em B7
Drunk off a bottle full of homemade gin
Em
Ragged old coat, hole in my shoe
Em B7
Just need a dollar for a can of beef stew

[Chorus]
Em
"Excuse me there, mister, can you spare a dime?
Em B7
I haven't had a meal for a very long time
Em
Give me just a nickel, I'll be on my way
Em B7
Can you help me out, buddy, whaddaya say?
Em
I said, "Requiem, requiem
Em B7
What do you expect from a dirty, ol' bum?
Em
Requiem, requiem
Em B7
Requiem of the crazies
Em
Requiem, requiem
Em B7
Requiem of the crazies
Em
Requiem, requiem
Em B7
Requiem of the crazies"

[Verse 2]
Em
I think my mind is slippin'
Em B7
There's voices in my brain
Em
There's poison in the water
Em B7
Slowly driving me insane
