VERSE:
       D       G Cadd9
Well I been sleepin` in my car
 G
Been movin` fast
    Cadd9        G
But it seems I ain`t gone far
        D
And I can`t believe
                 G Cadd9 G
All what I am and what I used to be

       D       G
I`m barely a man and livin` hard
    Cadd9       G
Well my father killed himself
    Cadd9      G
And my mother hit the bar

Well ain`t it funny,
     D               G  Cadd9 G
Ain`t it funny how the world`ll set you free?


CHORUS:
D           Cadd9
I spent my whole life wonderin` why I`m down
D            Cadd9
I don`t feel easy if the blues don`t come around
    Am               D
And my face don`t look right without a frown
    Cadd9
Well if you can`t swim
 D          G  Cadd9 G
You better learn to drown


VERSE:
       D        G
Well I been stealin` all my meals
Cadd9      G
 I been gettin` by
   Cadd9        G      D
Every time the well runs dry I tell myself
              G         Cadd9 G
If it don`t kill me then I guеss I`ll never die

       D       G
Wеll I been acting like a mule
     Cadd9      G
Cause I`d rather hear you laugh
    Cadd9       G        D
Than to be here with my mind and all my thoughts
    G                  Cadd9 G
Well I guess I`ll always be the laughin` fool


CHORUS:
D           Cadd9
I spent my whole life wonderin` why I`m down
D            Cadd9
I don`t feel easy if the blues don`t come around
    Am               D
And my face don`t look right without a frown
    Cadd9
Well if you can`t swim
 D          G  Cadd9 G  D G
You better learn to drown


INSTRUMENTAL/SOLO:
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D Cadd9 D G


VERSE:
 G            D      G
Well I`ve thought about closin` the door
  Cadd9   G
And ending it all
    Cadd9     G         D
Like my father did before but it ain`t worth
             G      Cadd9 G
All the people who won`t see me anymore

         D          G
Well there ain`t much that lasts too long
    Cadd9        G
All the rights that I took wrong,
    Cadd9          G
All the lefts that still ain`t gone
       D
They will be here,
            G Cadd9 G
Here in my sad bastard song


CHORUS:
D           Cadd9
I spent my whole life wonderin` why I`m down
D            Cadd9
I don`t feel easy if the blues don`t come around
    Am               D
And my face don`t look right without a frown
    Cadd9
Well if you can`t swim
 D          G  G  Am D G
You better learn to drown
