A*                             Amaj7
The keeper falls asleep in the hole
A7                     D7
I become what he won't allow
F                              A
Because happy never hurt me at all
E    riff1         A6 riff2
But, misery let me down

A*                            Amaj7
The man the floor above isn't home
A7                    D7
I go out painting the town
F                       A
I promise not to have a ball
E    riff1         A   /B
But, misery let me down

C/G         E
If you see, misery
Am                             E
Going through the things in my place
C/G
Won't you do me a favor and
E
Come invade my space

A*                      Amaj7
I've been pretending to care
A7                       D7
Crying in the tears of a clown
F                       A
I promise not to put on airs
E    riff1         A6 riff2
But, misery let me down

A* Amaj7 A7 D7 F A E  riff1 A /B

C/G          E
I'm a shell, in a cell
Am                    E
Looking myself in the face ... (G)
