Verse 1:
A augmentedA
Well I woke this morning with a pain in my neck,

A augmentedA pain in my heart and a pain in my chest,
A augmentedA
I went to the doctor and the good doctor said,

You gotta slow down your life or you're gonna be dead,
G+G D MajorD
Cut out the struggle and strife,
A augmentedA D MajorD
It only complicates your life.

A augmentedA
Well I cut down women, I cut out booze,
G+G D MajorD
I stopped ironing my shirts, cleaning my shoes,
A augmentedA
I stopped going to work, stopped reading the news,
G+G D MajorD
I sit and twiddle my thumbs cos I got nothing to do,
G+G D MajorD
Minimal exercise,
A augmentedA D MajorD (let ring)
To help uncomplicate my life,
(D MajorD ringing out through this line)
Gotta stand and face it; life is so complicated,
Chorus:
D MajorD A augmentedA
Ladi dah di dahdah, ladi dah di dah dah,

You gotta get away from the complicated life, son,
D MajorD A augmentedA
Life is overrated, life is complicated,
A augmentedA D MajorD
Must alleviate this complicated life.

Cut out the struggle and strife,

It's such a complicated life.
Verse 3 (same chords as Verse 2);
Like old Mother Hubbard, I got nothin' in the cupboard,
Got no dinner and I got no supper,
Holes in my shoes, I got holes in my socks,
I can't go to work cos I can't get a job,
The bills are rising sky high,
It's such a complicated life,
Gotta stand and face it; life is so complicated,
Chorus x2
Outro:
A augmentedA D MajorD
Gotta get away from the complicated life, son,
A augmentedA D MajorD
