• Difficulty: Beginner 👶

🎸 Verse 1:
G               D               G
Lately I'm feeling lousy all the time
G                       D                       G
I picked up my pants sat down tried to figure out why
C               C7
I had it whittled down to a page or two
G                                       C
And the paper trail led me straight to you
G                       D                       G
I see life's too short to put up with the things you do


G               D                       G
Spell you cast been messing with my sanity
G                       D                       G
Call me now baby while you stickin' them pins in me
C                            C7
But I figure if I'm finally over you
G                                       C
Cause I see right through that little 'doo you do
G                       D                       G
When life's too short to be involved with a witch like you

C
Life's too short to get in a rut
G
Life's too short to get a bad haircut
C
Life's too short to be this long
G
Life's too short to admit that you're wrong
C
Life's too short to wear tight shoes
G                       D       Fm
Life's too short to be blue
G                               D               G
Life's too short to be involved with a girl like you

G                       D               G
When I walk out I'll be free as a man can be
G                       D                       G
As funky as a monkey swinging high in the jungle tree
D                               C                       C7
And if that lion asks for you or the monkey asks or the elephant too
G                               D               G
I'll send you back home there caged up in your zoo


C
Life's too short for cheap guitars
G
Life's too short to smoke cheap cigars
D
Get your kicks from dead beat chicks
Dm
For chewing gum down at the end of the bar


C
Life's too short for steamship cruise
G               Fm              C
Life's too short to be blue
G                       D                       G
Life's too short to be involved with someone like you

C
Yeah, life's too short to brush and floss
G
Life's too short to sleep with the boss
D
Six way lights or disco bars
        Dm
Or trying to pick up chicks in a compact car

C
Life's too short for a bad tattoo
G               D               Fm
Life's too short to be blue
G               D                       G
Life's too short to be involved with a girl like you
G               D                       G
Yeah, life's too short to be involved with someone like you
G               D                       G
Yeah, life's too short to be involved with someone like you
