Dm C Bb F
I'll fake it through the day
Bb7 Gm
With some help from Johnny Walker Red
F Am C Bb
Send the poison rain down the drain
F A7
To put bad thoughts in my head
-------
Dm C Bb F
Your two tickets torn in half
Bb7 Gm
And a lot of nothing to do
F Am Bb F G
Do you miss me, Miss Misery
Bb F
Like you say you do?
-------
G# Cm
A man in the park
F C#M7
Read the lines in my hand
G#
Told me I'm strong
C
Hardly ever wrong I said man you mean
-------
Dm C Bb F
You had plans for both of us
Bb7 Gm
That involved a trip out of town
F Am C Bb
To a place I've seen in a magazine
F A7
That you left lying around
-------
Dm C Bb
I don't have you with me
F Bb7 Gm
But I keep a good attitude
F Am Bb F G
Do you miss me, Miss Misery
Bb F
Like you say you do?
-------
D Bb
I know you'd rather see me gone
F G Bb
Than to see me the way that I am
C Em6
But I am in the life anyway
-------
Dm C Bb F
Next door the TV's flashing
Bb7 Gm
Blue frames on the wall
F Am C Bb
It's a comedy of errors, you see
F A7
It's about taking a fall
-------
Dm C Bb F Bb7
To vanish into oblivion
Gm
Is easy to do
F Am Bb
And I try to be but you know me
F G Bb F Am
I come back when you want me to
F Am Bb F G
Do you miss me, Miss Misery
Bb F
Like you say you do?
