Better Off Dead

A
She couldn't stand me anymore
so she just took the kids and went.
You see, I've got a drinkin' 
problem,
all the money that we had I spent.

E
Now I must die by my own hand
'cause I'm not man enough to live 
alone.

Hey, hey, she's better off without 
me
        E
and I'm better off dead now that 
she's gone.

Ah, she gave the most, took the 
least,
she even had the priest come to our 
home.
And I cried and prayed and promised
that I'd leave the stuff alone.

E
Now I must leave what I can't face,
I hope she finds the kids a happy 
home.

Hey, hey she's better off without me

she's gone.

A
She used to call her friend and cry,
then the man cut off the telephone.
She'd sit and cry while I went out
and pawned the things we owned.

E
Now I must die by my own hand
'cause I'm not man enough to live 
alone.
