Intro
C# F# B C# x4
[Verse 1]
F#
Late one day as you're sitting awake
G# C#
How do you sleep with those pills you take?
F#
Rub your eyes and miss your head
C#
All you have is meat and you're a vegetarian
F#
Put in your key and your car won't start
G# F#
Your wife just left you and she took the sports car
G# C#
All alone and it's one of those days
C#
Oh my god you found out your neighbor's gay
[Chorus]
F# G#
Better days that you had
C#
And you blame it on fate
F#
You've got a bitter feeling in the back of your head
G# C#
And concentration's asleep
F# G#
How do you do the things you do
C#
And go on living your life?
F#
You beat your kids all the time
G# C#
And you constantly yell at your wife
[Instrumental]
C# F# B C# x2

[Verse 2]
C#
You're at work and you lost your check
F#
And the only secretary has lost her head
G#
More ideas wasted over the months
C#
Now a fire's consumed your home
C#
It's all right, you've got your pride
C#
But if I were you I would rather die
C#
It's all right, you've got your work
C#
But if I were you I'd start going to church
[Chorus]
F# G#
Better days that you had
C#
And you blame it on fate
F#
You've got a bitter feeling in the back of your head
G# C#
And concentration's asleep
F# G#
How do you do the things you do
C#
And go on living your life?
F#
You beat your kids all the time
G# C#
And you constantly yell at your wife
[Outro]
