Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse 1

 when the extra weight hits my brain

 i feel like i'm going insane

 that's when the hand of god cuts my cord

 that's when i feel like jah the lord

Chorus 1

 my heart is pumping blood into my head

 and i feel just like a thousand pounds of lead

 the right half of my body has gone numb

 and i think it's too much, too much

 i think it's too much oh, for me

repeat intro

Verse 2

when the monster inside my head

is telling me that i'm better off dead

that's when my mind is turned upside down

that's when i wish you weren't around

Chorus 2

my head is telling me that it's not right

and your face is such an unfamiliar sight

when i'm flying as high as a fucking kite

i think it's too much, too much

a little too much, too much!

i think it's too much oh, for me

ska bridge:

take anther drag kill the pain

 of your meaningless existence inm this godforsaken place

where everyone's a sellout but they're also fuckin' burnt out

thought it would be the best way to enhanse your state of mind

see i went home and turned on my tv cause i had the time

i look at all this bullshit, the mugging and the crime

war, death, disease, famine, what's it all worth

i started to lose it by the time i started losin' my mind

so i got to jah i to the j got the spliff got in his way

in the same frame of mind

got the same frame of mind

pickitup pickitup (3or4x)
