If you want some real contentment, to live life at its best,

        F+2                              Fm
You can buy these dry tobacco leaves, to breathe into your chest.

         C              A7         D7            D6
And then look up at the billboard, while all the promises come

G   Gsus4/A          G5(add C#)/B  G/B
true,         for you.



             C                   E7
You'll feel alive with pleasure, playful as a child.

       F+2                                   Fm
You've come to where the freedom is.  You're cool and mild.

       C                A7     D7      D6
You'll laugh with every lungful as the change comes

     G7sus4  G7  C  Csus4  G7sus4
over you.



   G7sus4       G7    C               G7sus4        G7  C
So look up at the billboard.  See her smiling, sexy and tan.

G/B
But the only   one   who's laughing is the advertising man.



       C                        E7
Those portraits of pleasure, of those who like to smoke,

        F                               Fm
They're laughing in the photograph, but we don't get the joke.

    C                 A7      D7            D6
Now why would they be smiling while they're looking

         G   Gsus4/A   G5(add C#)/B   G/B
down our way?



                       C          E7
I guess they're making easy money climbing up the rungs,

     F                            Fm
From selling us a parasite that's feeding on our lungs.

             C           A7                D7            D6

They must be laughing in astonishment that we believe the things

        G7sus4  G7  C  Csus4  G7sus4
they say.



   G7sus4       G7    C               G7sus4        G7  C
So look up at the billboard.  See her smiling, sexy and tan.

       Csus4 G7sus4  G7    C    Am7        D7/F#       G  Gsus4/A

Now crack'll kill you quickly.  That's why it's got to go.

        F+2                            Fm
They'll get more of your money if they kill you nice and slow.
