Nothing On My Back

Intro: A--C#-D-C#-G--C#-D-D (x6), A-- (x2) 

 
A                     G 
  Was happiness a fad? 
A 
  Or was it in the lost and  
G 
found again behind the issues 
A                       G 
  It might not be so bad 
A 
  We're all addicted 
       G 
to our tragedy 
  D 
I guess it's what 
   E 
it had to be 
  
  

     A             G 
With nothing on my back 
      D 
It's still enough  
   E 
to bring me down 
   A               G 
My mind's about to crack 
      D 
Cause what I thought 
      E 
could not be found 
A            G 
Matter of in fact 
     D 
It's harder still  
     E 
when you're around 
     A             G 
With nothing on my back 
  D              E(hold) 
I can't help but drown 
  
  
Interlude: A--C#-D-C#-G--C#-D-D (x4), A-G-A-D (x2) 
  
  

A   G        A 
  I might as well  
          D 
belong to both of you 
A         G        A 
  And the mess you always 
        D 
seem to drag me through 
A      G        A 
  That night forever  
       D 
always haunting me 
A       G        A 
  But I guess it is what 
        D 
it's supposed to be 
     D(hold) 
But spare your  
            E 
thoughts of sympathy 
  
  
(Repeat Chorus 1)

     E             D 
With nothing on my back 
      A 
It's still enough  
   B 
to bring me down 
   E               D 
My mind's about to crack 
      A 
Cause what I thought 
      B 
could not be found 
(Repeat x4) 
  
     E             D 
With nothing on my back 
      A 
It's still enough  
   B 
to bring me down 
   E               D 
My mind's about to crack 
      A 
Cause what I thought 
      B 
could not be found 
E            D 
Matter of in fact 
     A 
It's harder still  
     B 
when your around 
     E             D 
With nothing on my back 
  A              B(hold) 
I can't help but drown
