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