Verse:
A augmentedA       BB
Sick of this life
G# minorG#m      A augmentedA    A augmentedA G# minorG#m F# minorF#m E minorEm A augmentedA (*1)
Not that you'd care
A augmentedA      BB
I'm not the only one
E MajorE                F# minorF#m F#m G minorGm Gm G# minorG#m G#m (*2)
with whom these feelings I share

A augmentedA   BB
Nobody understands,
G# minorG#m       A augmentedA   A augmentedA G# minorG#m F# minorF#m E minorEm A augmentedA
quite why we're here
A augmentedA          BB
We're searchin' for answers
E MajorE         F# minorF#m F#m G minorGm Gm G# minorG#m G#m
That never appear
A augmentedA       BB
But maybe if I looked real hard I'd
G# minorG#m         A augmentedA   A augmentedA G# minorG#m F# minorF#m E minorEm A augmentedA
I'd see your tryin' too

To understand this life,
E MajorE               F# minorF#m F#m G minorGm Gm G# minorG#m G#m  E MajorE

A augmentedA             E MajorE
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
A augmentedA           E MajorE
It may sound funny but you'd think by now
    F#F#    F#F# G# minorG#m A augmentedA
I'd be smilin'
             E MajorE      A augmentedA
I guess some things never change
   E MajorE     A augmentedA
Never change

Verse:
I met an old cowboy
I saw the look in his eyes
Somethin' tells me he's been here before
'Cause experience makes you wise
I was only a small child
When the thought first came to me
That I'm a son of a gun and the gun of a son
That brought back the devil in me

Chorus:
A augmentedA             E MajorE
Sometimes I feel like I'm beatin' a dead horse
A augmentedA               E MajorE
And I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down
A augmentedA             E MajorE
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
A augmentedA           E MajorE
It may sound funny but you'd think by now
    F#F#    F#F# G# minorG#m A augmentedA
I'd be smilin'
             E MajorE      A augmentedA
I guess some things never change
   E MajorE     A augmentedA
Never change

Verse:
I ain't quite what you'd call an old soul
Still wet behind the ears
I been around this track a couple o' times
But now the dust is startin' to clear
Oh yeah!!!

A augmentedA             E MajorE
Sometimes I feel like I'm beatin' a dead horse
A augmentedA               E MajorE
And I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down
A augmentedA             E MajorE
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
A augmentedA           E MajorE
It may sound funny but you'd think by now
    A augmentedA   E MajorE
I'd be smilin'
         A augmentedA   E MajorE
Ooh yeah, I'd be smilin'
