Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

rythem pattern is same for whole song pretty much

Staying in bed till much too late (down in the dumps)

Scanning situations vacant (down in the dumps)

 The face in the mirror is withered and old (down in the dumps)

 My skin is grey, I can't go out, I'm always cold

In the doledrums

On the dole

In the doledrums

On the dole

Counting down lonely hours (down in the dumps)

Drinking lots and taking showers (down in the dumps)

 I no longer dream about the rest of my years (down in the dumps)

 Of triple A rock stars if anyone cares

In the doledrums

On the dole

In the doledrums

On the dole
