Anti-Morning Person Blues

A-D-E7 throughout, pretty simple, standard blue format

Well, I wake up and rub the sleep from my eyes (x2)
I could use a couple more hours, man time flies

Well, I’m just not ready to start the day (x2)
But, I don’t wanna get fired I’ll have to find a way

Well, I figure I’d just rather be dead (x2)
Load up this gun and put it to my head

Well, I need something to stop me (x2)
I found some salvation, gonna set me free

Gonna tell ya, the two things I need (x3)


Anti-Depressants and Coffee (however many times...)


Can't Figure Out

Entire thing is just G-A, find the strumming and you’re set. Slight break after the chorus that strums out and throws in a C.

Well, I did pretty good in school
But, I’ve done pretty poor in life
And sometimes, I start to think
There might be a correlation
Like I should have been learning something useful
Instead of being good at Jeopardy

These are things, I can’t figure out

Well, I start to wonder about all the times
I spent depressed, getting drunk, or chasing girls
If that energy had gone towards something productive
Would I have maybe accomplished anything
Invented something cool or cure a disease
Inspired hearts and minds and started a revolution

These are things, I can’t figure out

Well, I’m curious to how I’ll be remembered
I’m afraid it won’t be what I hoped for
I really did wanna try to save the world
But, I never could fix my own trainwreck of a life
Woefully short of all my lofty aspirations
What do I do with my time left?

These are things, I can’t figure out
