Intro

I gave up coffee and cigarettes

I hate to say it hasn’t helped me yet

I thought my problems would just dissipate

And all my pain would be in yesterday

 Same pattern: / /

I poured my booze all down the kitchen drain

And watched my bad habits get flushed away

I thought that that would keep my head on straight

And all my pain would be in yesterday

 But it’s true

 I’m still blue

 But I finally know what to do

 I must quit, I must quit, you

 Same Pattern: / /

I thought that if I didn’t go and play

The sadness would get bored and go away

I thought that if I didn’t go astray

That all my pain would be in yesterday

 But it’s true

 I’m still blue

 But I finally know what to do

 I must quit, I must quit, you

 Same Pattern: / /

I sold my guitar and my piano

I thought that it was these that kept me low

I thought if only I could try and change

That all my pain would be in yesterday

 But it’s true

 I’m still blue

 But I finally know what to do

 I must quit, I must quit, you

 I must quit, I must quit, you
