1.
D - A -
Some days I feel like bein' wispy

G - D -
and once in a while I feel like bein' dry

F# - G -
but we're doomed and we're drowned by this feeling we surround

D A D -
so I hope that I get old before I die



Chorus:
A - - -
oh

D - G -
It's a long long rope they use to hang you soon I hope

A - D -
and I wonder why this hasn't happened, why why why

D - G Gm
and I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt

D A D -
and I hope that I get old before I die



2.
Clear off the kitchen table darling
for on the kitchen table I must lie
I'm tired for my wife just served the banquet of my life
and I hope that I get old before I die


(Chorus)
