[A] [F#]
[A] [F#]
[A] Why you [F#m] turned out the way you [A] did?
That thunderstorm, [F#] it's crashing [A] in Ukraine
Why did [F#m] all these funny faces look the same?
[E] I know who to [A] blame, there's more I wouldn't say
[F#]
[A] [F#]
[A] It's time [F#m] that I got moving [A] on
You're still burning, [F#m] glad you oughta [A] seen me for a time
[F#m] Forget how you've been [E] touched
I love you so, I told you, [D] but it didn't matter much
[A] I'm trying to figure [D] out what's true about [F#] these days
I [C#m] don't have much to say [E] to you
[A] And I've been drunk and in a skunk ever [D] since the day I left you
[F#] Cause I can see we're safely [E] fagged away, off in my [A] steamer's run
[F#]
[A] [F#]
[A] Why [F#m] I turned out the way I [A] did?
Someone, somewhere, [F#] dropped me on my [A] cranium
Sorry, [F#m] didn't really see what you just [E] said
Short term memory is [D] gone, but my life's a problem, [A] man
And I'm trying to figure out [D] what's true about these days
[C#m] I don't have much to [E] say to you
And [A] I've been drunk and in a skunk ever [D] since the day I left you
Cause I can see we're safely [E] fagged away, off in my [A] steamer's run
In my steamer's run
And I'm trying to figure [D] out what's true about these days
I [C#m] don't have much to [E] say to you
[A] And I've been swearing like a sailor [D] since the day that I left her
With [F#] the darkest [A] secrets safely fagged away, off in my steamer's run
