Verse:
F
You ask me if iʼm happy now
C
Thatʼs good as any joke iʼve heard
It seems since iʼve seen you last
F
Iʼve done forgotten the meening of the words
If happiness is empty rooms
And drinkinʼ in the afternoon
A#
Well i suppose iʼm happy as a clown
C
But if itʼs got a thing to do
With smilinʼ of forgettinʼ you
F
Well i donʼt guess that i could say i am
Chorus:
F
Did you ever see a darling out a waken up alone
C
Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew
When the water from the weeds that sop the paper
F
Heʼs been puttinʼ in his shoes to keep the ground from cominʼ through
And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants
A#
Because heʼs never seen a single dream come true
C
Thatʼs the way that iʼve been feelinʼ since the day i started fallen
From the bottle to the bottom stew by stew
F
Learninʼ hard to live with losinʼ you
Verse:
F
You wonder if iʼm better off
C
With freedom now to do the things i choose
With all my times my own and
F
I got nothinʼ left but sleepinʼ time to lose
Thereʼs no one here to carry on
If i stay out the whole night lone
A#
Give a thinkerʼs damn if i donʼt call
C
Iʼm livinʼ like i wanted you
And doinʼ things i wanna do
F
And nothinʼ means a things to me at all
Chorus.
