[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
