Dm C A# F

i’ll fake it through the day

A#7 Gm

with some help from johnny walker red

F Am C A#

send the poison brain down the drain

F A7

to put bad thoughts in my head

– – – – – – –

Dm C A# F

your two tickets torn in half

A#7 Gm

and a lot of nothing to do

F Am A# F G

do you miss me , miss misery

A# F

like you say you do?

– – – – – – –

G# C#m

a man in the park

F C#

read the lines in my hand

G#

told me i’m strong

C

hardly ever wrong i said man you mean

– – – – – – –

Dm C A# F

you had plans for both of us

A#7 Gm

that involved a trip out of town

F Am C A#

to a place i’ve seen in a magazine

F A7

that you left lying around

– – – – – – –

Dm C A#

i don’t have you with me

F A#7 Gm

but i keep a good attitude

F Am A# F G

do you miss me , miss misery

A# F

like you say you do?

– – – – – – –

D A#

i know you’d rather see me gone

F G A#

than to see me the way that i Am

C Em6

but i Am in the life anyway

– – – – – – –

Dm C A# F

next door the tv’s flashing

A#7 Gm

blue frames on the wall

F Am C A#

it’s a comedy of errors , you see

F A7

it’s about taking a fall

– – – – – – –

Dm C A# F A#7

to vanish into oblivion

Gm

is easy to do

F Am A#

and i try to be but you know me

F G A# F Am

i come back when you want me to

F Am A# F G

do you miss me , miss misery

A# F

like you say you do?
