[Verse 1]
N.C.
It's early in the morning
         N.C.
And I'm sitting at the table
           N.C.
Drinking shots of ancient whiskey
          N.C.
'Cause I don't feel all that stable
      A   A/G    A   A/G
Oh-oh-oh
  A   A/G    A   A/G
Woo

[Verse 2]
      N.C.
We're in a fucking nightmare
           N.C.
There's a hundred-thousand victims
       N.C.
If we can't protect them safely
           N.C.
Then they die from their complexion

Violence in the city

But we're racing to the bottom
