VERSE:
D MajorD G+G Cadd9Cadd9
Well I been sleepin` in my car
G+G
Been movin` fast
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
But it seems I ain`t gone far
D MajorD
And I can`t believe
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
All what I am and what I used to be
D MajorD G+G
I`m barely a man and livin` hard
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
Well my father killed himself
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
And my mother hit the bar
Well ain`t it funny,
D MajorD G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
Ain`t it funny how the world`ll set you free?
CHORUS:
D MajorD Cadd9Cadd9
I spent my whole life wonderin` why I`m down
D MajorD Cadd9Cadd9
I don`t feel easy if the blues don`t come around
A minorAm D MajorD
And my face don`t look right without a frown
Cadd9Cadd9
Well if you can`t swim
D MajorD G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
You better learn to drown
VERSE:
D MajorD G+G
Well I been stealin` all my meals
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
I been gettin` by
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G D MajorD
Every time the well runs dry I tell myself
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
If it don`t kill me then I guеss I`ll never die
D MajorD G+G
Wеll I been acting like a mule
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
Cause I`d rather hear you laugh
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G D MajorD
Than to be here with my mind and all my thoughts
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
Well I guess I`ll always be the laughin` fool
CHORUS:
D MajorD Cadd9Cadd9
I spent my whole life wonderin` why I`m down
D MajorD Cadd9Cadd9
I don`t feel easy if the blues don`t come around
A minorAm D MajorD
And my face don`t look right without a frown
Cadd9Cadd9
Well if you can`t swim
D MajorD G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G D MajorD G+G
You better learn to drown

VERSE:
G+G D MajorD G+G
Well I`ve thought about closin` the door
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
And ending it all
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G D MajorD
Like my father did before but it ain`t worth
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
All the people who won`t see me anymore
D MajorD G+G
Well there ain`t much that lasts too long
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
All the rights that I took wrong,
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
All the lefts that still ain`t gone
D MajorD
They will be here,
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
Here in my sad bastard song
CHORUS:
D MajorD Cadd9Cadd9
I spent my whole life wonderin` why I`m down
D MajorD Cadd9Cadd9
I don`t feel easy if the blues don`t come around
A minorAm D MajorD
And my face don`t look right without a frown
Cadd9Cadd9
Well if you can`t swim
D MajorD G+G G+G A minorAm D MajorD G+G
You better learn to drown
