Standard (EADGBE)
I'm getting sick of everyone I'm with
I'm getting sick of keeping positive
and I'm getting bored of putting on a smile
and I've been so good, but it doesn't do me much good
yeah, I've been good, but it doesn't pay like it should
Lord, It's so hard to keep your head,
when you've got everything to lose
baby just brings bad news as she goes running through
I'm getting sick of cleaning up the mess
and I'm getting sick of this helplessness
and I'm getting bored of feeling insecure
and I'm getting bored of looking at this bedroom door
I'm getting bored of this song she sings that I've heard a million times before
Lord, It's so hard to keep your head,
when you've got everything to lose
baby just brings bad news as she goes running through
Lord, it's so hard to keep your friends
when you own everything you choose
so baby just sings the blues to just anyone who seems to care
Break
blues solo in E, first position at 12th fret.
Lord, It's so hard to keep your head,
when you've got everything to lose
baby just brings bad news as she goes running through
Lord, it's so easy when you're on the floor
when you've got nothing left to lose
so baby just cries for food off anyone who won't refuse.
