VERSE:
D G Cadd9
Well I been sleepin' in my car
G
Been movin' fast
Cadd9 G
But it seems I ain't gone far
D
And I can't believe
G Cadd9 G
All what I am and what I used to be
D G
I'm barely a man and livin' hard
Cadd9 G
Well my father killed himself
Cadd9 G
And my mother hit the bar
Well ain't it funny,
D G Cadd9 G
Ain't it funny how the world'll set you free?
CHORUS:
D Cadd9
I spent my whole life wonderin' why I'm down
D Cadd9
I don't feel easy if the blues don't come around
Am D
And my face don't look right without a frown
Cadd9
Well if you can't swim
D G Cadd9 G
You better learn to drown
VERSE:
D G
Well I been stealin' all my meals
Cadd9 G
I been gettin' by
Cadd9 G D
Every time the well runs dry I tell myself
G Cadd9 G
If it don't kill me then I guеss I'll never die
D G
Wеll I been acting like a mule
Cadd9 G
Cause I'd rather hear you laugh
Cadd9 G D
Than to be here with my mind and all my thoughts
G Cadd9 G
Well I guess I'll always be the laughin' fool
CHORUS:
D Cadd9
I spent my whole life wonderin' why I'm down
D Cadd9
I don't feel easy if the blues don't come around
Am D
And my face don't look right without a frown
Cadd9
Well if you can't swim
D G Cadd9 G D G
You better learn to drown
INSTRUMENTAL/SOLO:
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D Cadd9 D G
VERSE:
G D G
Well I've thought about closin' the door
Cadd9 G
And ending it all
Cadd9 G D
Like my father did before but it ain't worth
G Cadd9 G
All the people who won't see me anymore
D G
Well there ain't much that lasts too long
Cadd9 G
All the rights that I took wrong,
Cadd9 G
All the lefts that still ain't gone
D
They will be here,
G Cadd9 G
Here in my sad bastard song
CHORUS:
D Cadd9
I spent my whole life wonderin' why I'm down
D Cadd9
I don't feel easy if the blues don't come around
Am D
And my face don't look right without a frown
Cadd9
Well if you can't swim
D G G Am D G
You better learn to drown
