D                     A
Sometimes      I    feel like bein'     wispy                     and
G                     D
once in a while I   feel like bein'     dry                  but we're
F#                    G
med    and we're drowned   by   this feeling   we   surround       so   I
D          A          D
e that I    get  old   before   I    die

Chorus:
A
ohhhhhhhhhhh 
       D                 G
It's a long long rope they use to hang you soon Ie 
      A                        D
And I wonder why  this hasn't happened, why why why 
      D                        G             Gm
And I thinkut the dirt that I'll be wearing a shirt 
      D               A              D
And Ie that I get old  before I  die
