[Verse 1]
G
I been sleepin' in my car
C
Been movin' fast but it seems I ain't gone far
D G
And I can't believe oh what I am and what I used to be
[Verse 2]
G
I'm barely a man and living hard
C
My father killed himself and my mother hit the bar
D G
Well ain't it funny, ain't it funny how the world'll set you free
[Chorus]
D C
I spent my whole life wonderin' why I'm down
D C
I don't feel easy if the blues don't come around
Am D
And my face don't look right without a frown
C D G
Well if you can't swim, you better learn to drown
[Verse 3]
G
I been stealin' all my meals
C
I been gettin' by every time the well runs dry
D G
I tell myself if it don't kill me then I guess I'll never die
[Verse 4]
G
Well I been actin' like a mule
C
Cause I'd rather hear you laugh than be here with my mind
D G
and all my thoughts, well I guess I'll always be the laughin' fool
[Chorus]
D C
I spent my whole life wonderin' why I'm down
D C
I don't feel easy if the blues don't come around
Am D
And my face don't look right without a frown
C D G
Well if you can't swim, you better learn to drown
