     A#m
When everybody else refrained
                      F#  F
My uncle Jonny did cocaine

He's convinced himself right in his brain
That it helps to take away the pain

Hey, Jonny
Hey what you say Jonny

I wanna go out tonight
Come a little closer to the city lights

Levitation ain't your only friend
Levitation coming back again

            F#
You feel a burning in your body core.
       D#m
Its a yearning that you cant ignore.
      A#m
And I want to go out tonight.
      G#
S-s-s-superman and hold on tight.
             F#                          G#
But he's convinced himself right in his brain

Chorus:
         C#             C       A#m
That it helps to take away the pain.
G#   F#  G#
Hey Jonny. Hey what you say Jonny?

My appetite ain't got no heart
I said my appetite ain't got no heart

Shocking people when you feel that pull
Shock 'em, drop 'em when you know it's full

I feel a burning in my body's core
It's a yearning that you can't ignore
Now I gotta go out tonight
Hey Jonny I got faith in you man,
I mean it, it's gonna be all right
He's convinced himself right in his brain

Chorus:
That it helps to take away the pain
Hey, Jonny. Hey what you say Jonny

Tell us what's going on
Feel's like everything's wrong
Hey what you say Jonny
If the future is real
Jonny, you've got to heal
Hey what you say Jonny

When everybody else refrained
My uncle Jonny did cocaine
