Happy Ever After

C                                 
Lately I’ve been singing the blues
      G                         C
 for no apparent reason.

             C
I lay around on the couch piss and 
moan dragging everyone down.
                                    
        G
                        C
Maybe its always been in my blood 
stream, maybe daddy was right when 
he
                                    
                           G
             C
told me, boy your just like you mom 
keep your head up your ass all the 
time
                 F                 
I feel like a fool, kicking my self
                          C
 black and blue for the choices I’ve
 made.
                F                  
                        C
                      G
Down and out, stuck in the muck 
sinking fast getting, worse every 
day.

Chorus
C                                 
         G

Good lord want you throw me a life 
line, a ray of hope in the sunshine.
Want you help me to find my happy 
          G              F      C
