Then for the “Oooh Oooh the damage done” part just play the C chord

I hit the city and I lost my band, watched the needle take another man

 
“Gone, Gone, the damage done” play the C chord again through that


Then play intro once

I sing the song because I love the man, I know that some of you don’t understand


“Milk-blood to keep from running out” Play the C chord

I’ve seen the needle and the damage done, a little part of it in everyone


“But every junkies like a setting sun” play the C chord



That's it!
