[Verse 1]
F                                                     Bb                       F
They could prescribe you any illness you like, if you define the terms of your ailment
                                                          Bb                           C
You could sing a pretty malady like a black canary,  but a crow don't know the smell of carbon monoxide
F                                                       Bb                           F
How many years have you been on that couch? They coulda quilt'd you in the throws by now
                                                                  Bb                    C
You draw a line in the sand, where it ends and you begin, but the tide rolls in, so who knows? Oh, well.
 
[Chorus 1]
      Bb              C
And a little identity never hurt nobody,
       Am                               Dm
oh but lately you've been focusing too much on yourself
   Bb                                          C
So how many milligrams of you are still left in there?
       Bb                       C                 Am                 Dm
‘Cause back in my day we didn't need no feel-good pills, and no psychiatrists
           Bb    Am  Gm      Dm Bbm    N.C.
No we just drank ourselves to death, and goddammit we liked it
 
[Short instrumental]
F A7 Dm Bb F Bbm F
F A7 Dm Bb F Bbm F
 
[Verse 2]
F                                                                Bb
Who makes the call, what's a symptom, what’s a flaw? Could it be both?
                         F
Well I suppose that’s an answer
                                                             Bb                                 C
Would you give up your humanity for just a touch of sanity? ‘Cause god knows, it’s not like its cancer!
    F                                                       Bb                F
And good news to the purist, they discovered a cure for the symptoms of being alive
                                                          Bb                C
It’s a painless procedure with a low rate of failure, but very few patients survive!
 
[Chorus 2]
       Bb               C                      Am                                    Dm
And a little conformity never hurt nobody, but lately I've been worried that you're losing yourself
  Bb                                            C
So how many milligrams of you are still left in there?
       Bb                       C                 Am                 Dm
‘Cause back in my day we didn't need no feel-good pills, and no psychiatrists
           Bb   Am  Gm  Dm  Bbm
No we just bled out in our baths, and goddammit we liked it

[Piano Solo]
 
[Bridge]
Dm                                 F
Doctor, what's my prognosis if the studies show that
C                            F
Disease is in the eye of the beholder
        A7    Bb
Tell me so it goes
               C                   Am                       Dm
We depress to impress, I guess, in layer after layer to get off our chests
     Gm
It’s cold out now, we can take it off later
C
Better safe than sorry and we both know the dangers
Dm                       F
So doctor, could you run another test?
C                                    F                    A7        Bb
Got a feeling this time I might just pass it, well if you raise the average!
Bb                   C                     Am                       Dm
We all sing when the bell curve rings, in lyrics symptomatic of the way we think
Gm                                                          C
If our harmonies don't sync, we can change our voices, our chorus unconditional of diagnosis
 
[Chorus 3]
 Bb                       C                 Am                 Dm
Back in my day we didn't need no feel good pills, and no psychiatrists
Bb                           C           Am              Dm
What can I say except don't heed no evil wills of moral nihilists
       Bb                    C               A7                   Dm
I said back in the days of lobotomies, shock therapies, and mad scientists!
             Bb   Am Gm    Dm Bbm     N.C.
Oh don't you make me waste my breath, and goddammit—

[Final verse]
C                   F                                     Dm
Is your identity at stake? Does aspirin kill you with the pain?
                                          G                                        C
You're not your thoughts, you're not your brain, you're just that character you've made
                              F                                   Dm
Up in your head, down in your heart, what seem like separate body parts
                       G                                C
Just come together to believe they're you, and not just chemistry
                          F                                    Dm
It’s not the way you were raised, not what the advertisements say
                               G                                   C
Not what you pay for, what you pray for, what you want or what you say
                           Am                            F
And I see your tendency to redefine disease by what you need,
                       G                                 C
and I'm afraid I can't prescribe the diagnosis that you seek
                                Am                         F
But something tells me that you need, forgive me now if I misspeak,
                                G
but something tells me that you like, yeah something tells me—
F            G
That you prefer
 
To be sitting there flipping through those old issues of People
N.C.                                                  C
Well that's our time, see you same time next week
