Intro

, , , X 6

Windy old head

I sang along with the words that she said

Happy and bad

"Where goes the time?"

She asked me once

 Oh and if you don't mind

Give back my heart when you go

, , , x2

Begging bowl blues

Wrapped round my head

 Like a fistful of news nobody reads

Me and her name I can't recall

 I was never the same after she left me

 And oh I missed her so

Never thought much of her reason to go

 And well, she cast a spell

Under I fell in a useless hello

Bridge.

, , , x3

, , , x4

Useless old day

Wishing the hours would take me away

Just for a while

Nobody's crook, stealing an answer

 Oh why does he look drunk as the day he was born?

Ragged and torn, lives for the money these days,

 What a joke

 And once, twice is a sin

Couldn't get in with the elegant folk

, , , x4

I cannot wait any longer

 And I cannot claim to be free

 Whenever it seems like I'm losing

 The begging bowl blues follow me

 And she cannot say that she's happy

 And I cant be sure if I care

I got wrapped up in the money

 And the begging bowl blues kept me there

Repeat to fade
