Hey, Asshole

	  		

F            Am 
Hey, asshole 
Am             Dm 
See the sun is shining 
Dm              Bb     F 
But you are not smiling 
F                C                                           F 
And I don't know why, and I don't know why, and I don't know why 
       F      Am 
I'm an asshole 
Am               Dm     F 
Cause the sun is shining 
F            Bb     F 
But I am not smiling 
F                C                                           F 
And I don't know why, and I don't know why, and I don't know why 


F 
I know I'm often told 
Am 
That there's a pot of gold 
Dm 
But I don't see a fucking rainbow and my coffee's cold 
Bb 
I know I should be grateful 
F 
I know I'm good and able 
C 
But I don't have the strength to get up from the kitchen table 
F 
This kind of shot comes once 
Am               Dm 
Another opportunity of a lifetime just slipped away 
Dm 
And that's the fifth this month 
Bb 
But when you take a punch 
F 
Don't you ever forget 
C 
Why you get up and you put one foot in front of the next 


F 
Got the power of my will 
F                      Am 
I don't needa to win a mil 
Am 
But I'm looking at window sill 
Dm 
Gotta take a bitter pill 
Dm 
Gonna pay for what I did to my head and my heart'll foot the bill 
Bb                                                       F 
Got a foot in my mouth and because I'm kicking myself I developed a habit of knocking  
out my front tooth 
C 
Looking uncouth 
C 
Want to hear the truth 
C 
Give it to me straight, 151 proof 


F                                                  Am 
Telling myself it'll happen when I'm happy but I'm climbing up a ladder that has got no end 
Dm 
Hung up on a rung I'll never make it to the top, I'm looking at the bottom and I must descend 
Bb 
All I want to do is buck this trend 
F 
Everybody need a buck to spend 
C 
And I'll be working on myself, til I work on someone else, til I get there Ima just pretend 


F 
I know I'm often told 
Am 
That there's a pot of gold 
Dm 
But I don't see a fucking rainbow and my coffee's cold 
Bb 
I know I should be grateful 
F 
I know I'm good and able 
C 
But I don't have the strength to get up from the kitchen table 
F 
This kind of shot comes once 
Am               Dm 
Another opportunity of a lifetime just slipped away 
Dm 
And that's the fifth this month 
Bb 
But when you take a punch 
F 
Don't you ever forget 
C 
Why you get up and you put one foot in front of the next 


F            Am 
Hey, asshole 
Am             Dm     F 
See the sun is shining 
F               Bb     F 
But you are not smiling 
F                C                                           F 
And I don't know why, and I don't know why, and I don't know why 
       F      Am 
I'm an asshole 
Am               Dm 
Cause the sun is shining 
             Bb     F 
But I am not smiling 
F                C                                           F 
And I don't know why, and I don't know why, and I don't know why 


F 
When I'm in a crisis 
Am 
In a moment of silence 
Dm 
I look under my eyelids 
Dm 
And I'm checking my mileage 
Bb                                F 
I been using a pool of water as a mirror but not for style it's 
C 
So I can reach in and pimpslap my reflection for acting childish 
F 
Spent a half an hour 
Am 
Sitting at the bottom of my shower 
Dm 
Letting the water run over my body and (dammit I wanted to get up) but I didn't have the power 
Bb               F         C 
I don't have the answer anyway yay (yay yay yay (2x) 
F 
Don't want to panic but I got to come clean 
Am 
Because the plan of the planet is just mean 
Dm 
Knew if was tough, but dammit it's obscene 
Dm                                                      Bb 
I been huffing and puffing up to the top of the summit and I'mma rough it if I have  
enough steam 
F                                                        C 
I'll keep on coming and coming until I'm coming with the stamina of a salmon who's  
heading upstream 
C               F 
Nah nah nah nah nah 
Am                 Dm 
Nah nah nah nah nah 
Dm              Bb  F 
Nah nah nah nah nah 
F               C 
Nah nah nah nah nah 
C 
Nah nah nah nah nah 
C               F 
nah nah nah nah nah 

F            Am 
Hey, asshole

But you are not smiling 
F                C                                           F 
And I don't know why, and I don't know why, and I don't know why 
       F      Am 
I'm an asshole 
Am               Dm 
Cause the sun is shining 
             Bb     F 
But I am not smiling 
F                C                                           F 
And I don't know why, and I don't know why, and I don't know why
