 You could hear him screaming
       E                 A
As he looked beyond the door
    E             A
His only son was lying
      E              A
In a heap upon the floor
     E                   A
And from his wrists that opened wide
     E                    A 
His life has flowed from deep 
     E    A
insiiiiide


CHORUS:
D             G      C    
  And in his hand a note that 
     G   C
reeeeead
      G     C         G  C
It's better   if I'm dead
       Em                 Em7
'Cause his whole life was bad,
         G        D    Em
All the times we never had

I can't say it's been nice because
     Eb     D
 it wasn't
      G            D            
And, mama, please forgive me if I 
   Em
messed the rug
     C                D        G
But you can have it cleaned tomorrow
D        G                  D
Oh, and you'll find some excuse
         Em          Em7
To tell your garden club
     C                   D        
I'm sure they'll all express their
  G     G  F
 sorrow

 You could see them running
          E               F#m
As they tried to get some help
            E                
Yeah, the neighboors all were 
  A
pourin' in
    E                A
To say how bad they felt
     E                A
How could this happen in our town
   E               A     E  A
I hope it doesn't get around


CHORUS:
D            G      C    
 And in his hand a note that

reeeeeead
      G     C         G  C
It's better   if I'm dead

I can't say it's been nice because
     Eb     D
 it wasn't
      G           D            
And, daddy, even this can have a 
   Em
good side
        C                    
'Cause here's your chance for 
  D              G        D
cutting all my hair off
         G               D        
Oh, and from today I'll never let 
     Em        Em7
you down again
        C                D        
'Cause now your biggest problem is
  G
 taken care of
