D  A  G  B A (x2)

[No guitar]
She's a Salvador immigrant, head through a thin wall 
A frail hooker, holding her corner walls 
Gleaming sky scr*per bunker he looked down 
Laugh hysterically and then he spread around 

   D                           B
On Hoover Street, then he must be alone 
    D                        B
The precious little, the kid cast the woes 
     D                    B
Of a ??? girl she kind of made you spill 
            D              B
Her brother Mario got shot four times in the head

[No guitar]
Now see poor Mario, he caught a hot one
Through the lung, now he's done so God bless him
And the cocaine moves too fast through their system
Like a river forever wandering

       D                 B
To the last party of the under class
    D                                       B
??? distance just a bunch of kids who don't wanna finish last
            D                            B
Now see the market place has changed the weight of the scale 
           D                 B
You either get out and die or go to jail

[No guitar]
And your best intentions splinter and frail
And a few weeks of promises and attempts fail

       D                 B
It's a glass-pipe murder
D                  B
Glass-pipe murder, Oh-oh yeah
D                 B
Glass-pipe murder
       D                  B
It's a glass-pipe murder, Oh-oh-oh-oh

D    A   G   B   A
Yeah     Oh  yeah
   D    A   G   B   A
Oh yeah     Oh  yeah


[No guitar]
They kick a bottle of beer and a letter
Simple things made Mario feel better
You see it falls on you and it falls on me
Self-annihilation, catastrophe 

D                B
Two packs of cigarettes
    D               B
For two dollars and seventy cents and a
D                          B
Bottle of wine that's been opened
            D          B
And he said, "Why do I do this?" 

[No guitar]
A shiver through his body like a bottle of CC
Not encouraging reality or me
He said, "It's who I am baby, back to it."
Off the deep end the record changed 

         D                   B
You see, no one stood up and cheered for him
     D                 B
Everyone sat down with something that happened
  D       B
Began...
   D      B
To happen

[No guitar]
It's an old school dorm mystery
And the handcuffs bleed...        

       D                 B
It's a glass-pipe murder
D                  B
Glass-pipe murder, Oh-oh yeah
D                 B
Glass-pipe murder
       D                  B
It's a glass-pipe murder, Oh-oh-oh-oh

D    A   G   B   A
Yeah     Oh  yeah
   D    A   G   B   A
Oh yeah     Oh  yeah
