[Verse]
Em Am Em
Well I ain't your baby I ain't your baby now
Em Am Em
Them holy rollers got kicked right out of town
C G
It's dark where I've been stayin'
D Em
Don't you worry come on in
G D
Well I've finally found a friend
D Em
I've found a friend
[Chorus]
C G
Codeine, Codeine
D Em
You're the nicest thing I've seen
Am
For a while
Em
For a while
[Verse]
Well you hold my hand as I step into the room
And all these people they'll all be fading soon
It's whisper time remembered through armor thorns and knives
And it's all I got left to hold on to
[Chorus]
Codeine, Codeine
You're the nicest thing I've seen
For a while
For a while
[Verse]
Well you can keep your dusty bottles on your shelf
And you can keep your words of wisdom to yourself
I love you darling so
Why can't you let me go
Before you find me hanging in my cell
[Chorus]
Codeine, Codeine
You're the nicest thing I've seen
For a while
For a while
Codeine, Codeine
You're the nicest thing I've seen
For a while
For a while
