I’ve never been much good at getting up in the morning. Singing after dark has been my tomb.
       C            Em          F             C        Am                Em                  F    G
I’ve got my pistol out on this innocent blue dawning. Guardian on those dreams still on the move.

    F       G       C       C/B    Am     G                F        G                  C          C7
I hoped to write my way out of the pines       there’s not much now that’s never been done before.

 I never been much good at heeding the bosses warning. Dictated by that pulp they all sell.
        C             Em            F               C        Am            Em           F         G
And I haven’t got the time for that bourgeois hippy yearning banging on my drums and my bells.

   F       G        C       C/B    Am     G                F        G                  C          C7
I hoped to write my way out of the pines       there’s not much now that’s never been done before.
F       G     C                 C/B   Am     G           F             G                  C

I’ve never been much good at keeping a good thing going. Just another fool the wishing well.
            C                   Em          F                     C
When they tell me I’m doing it wrong and I say that don’t make  meaning.
     Am                Em                    F         G
The way you float downstream in the ship of spells.
