Lyrics:

C♯ I A♯ don't knC♯ow A♯ just where I'm gC♯oing A♯ C♯ A♯

But C♯I'm A♯ gonna tC♯ry for the kingA♯dom if I C♯can

Cuz it makes me fA♯eel like I'm a maC♯n

When I put a sA♯pike into my veiC♯n

Then, I tell ya', tA♯hings aren't quite the samC♯e

When I'm A♯rushin' on my ruC♯n

And I fA♯eel just like Jesus' soC♯n

And I gA♯uess that I just don't knC♯ow

And I gA♯uess that I just don't knoC♯w

C♯I A♯ have madC♯e A♯ big decisC♯ions A♯ C♯ A♯

C♯I'm A♯ gonna trC♯y A♯ to nullify my liC♯fe

Cuz when the blA♯ood begins to floC♯w

When it sA♯hoots up the dropper's neC♯ck

When I'm clA♯osing in on deatC♯h

After this line, Morrison interjects with a riff B, which is to be repeated as necessary:

And you can't A♯help me, not you guyC♯s

Or all you sweet gA♯irls with all your sweet talC♯k

You can aA♯ll go take a walC♯k

And I gA♯uess I just don't knoC♯w

And I gA♯uess that I just don't knoC♯w

C♯ I A♯ wish thaC♯t A♯ I was born a thousand years aC♯go A♯ C♯ A♯

C♯I A♯ wish thaC♯t A♯ I'd sailed the darkened seaC♯s

On a gA♯reat big clipper shipC♯

Going from tA♯his land here to thaC♯t

Ah, in a sA♯ailor's suit and capC♯ A♯ C♯ A♯

C♯ Away fA♯rom the big ciC♯ty

Where a mA♯an cannot be freC♯e

Of all of the eA♯vils of this towC♯n

And of himsA♯elf and those arounC♯d

Oh, and I gA♯uess that I just don't knoC♯w

C♯ HeeA♯eeeroC♯in

A♯ Be the death of mC♯e A♯ C♯ A♯

C♯ HeeA♯eeeroC♯in

It's my wA♯ife and it's my liC♯fe

Because a maiA♯nline to my veiC♯n

Leads to a ceA♯nter in my heaC♯d

And then I'm bA♯etter off as deaC♯d

Because when the smA♯ack begins to floC♯w

Ah, I rA♯eally don't care aC♯nymore

About all the A♯jim-jims in this towC♯n

And all the politA♯icians makin' busy sounC♯ds

And everybody pA♯uttin' everybody else dowC♯n

And all the dead A♯bodies piled up in NaC♯m

Play riff B a few times

Cuz when the A♯smack begins to fC♯low

Then IA♯ really don't care anymoC♯re

Ah, when that hA♯eroin is in my bloC♯od

And that bA♯lood is in my heaC♯d

Then thank A♯god that I'm good as deaC♯d

And thank your A♯god that I'm not awaC♯re

And thank A♯god that I just don't caC♯re

And I gA♯uess I just don't knC♯ow

Ah, and I gA♯uess I just don't knC♯ow

End on Db
