Penelope Scott - American Healthcare: chords

18+
        Em
When I was seven years old
         G
I saw a dead man in the road
             D
Outside the liquor store
                        G
A few blocks from my school

            Em
Well he was cold and he was warm
               G
He looked the damn same as before
            D
Except for something in the eyes
               G
And a bit of drool

Chorus:
             C         D
Well people die every day
            G          G/B   Em
I wouldn't have it any other way
               C
I just think they should feel good while they
      B
are alive
            C                 D
I went to school I got good grades
          G      G/B         Em
I don't know you want me to say
         C                    D              G
Tell me faster 'cause you're running out of time

             C    D   G  Em
I wanted to help people
               Am       D        G Em
I thought that I could save the sick
            Am               D
And if it's all the same to you
                   G      G/B   Em
There's one more thing I gotta do
              C
Because with god as my witness
You corporate fucking prick
       D                           B
I did not become a doctor just to suck
            Em
the devil's dick

I made it though all four years
And then almost a decade more
I asked the right questions
And never even really got bored
They hired me in my hometown
And then again when I moved away
People liked me back then
What can I say?

It was the government
The companies, bureaucracy
The lobbyists, the congressmen, and lies
They trickled into both my ears
And got louder over the years
Until all that I could hear was fucking flies

Well, people die every day
I wouldn't have it any other way
I just think they should feel
okay while they're alive
How could they ever feel okay
When things are more and more this way?
Sometimes it's like they'd rather die

Chorus:
I fucking helped people
I thought that I could do the trick
And if it's all the same to you
There's one more thing I got to do
Because with god as my witness
You corporate piece of shit
I did not become a doctor just to
suck the devil's dick
