Loudon Wainwright III - I Know Im Unhappy

      [Verse 1]
  D
I know I'm unhappy
  A
I know things aren't right
G                                        D
For instance last week I got drunk every night

[Verse 2]
  D
I know that I'm angry
  A
I know I'm afraid
G                               D
I rarely make love I mostly get laid

[Verse 3]
  D
I know I'm unhealthy
   A
No doctor would doubt
G                                           D      A
My dreams are all bad and; my hairs falling out

[Chorus]
G                                                         Em
When you get the blues and; you want to shoot yourself in the head
Em
It's alright, it's alright
     G
Go ahead
G
Do the monkey do the pony
                            Em
Do the slop do the boogaloo twist
Em                                         G
Cut your throat, Cut your throat, Cut your wrist

[Middle 8]
  D                 G
When you tire of wordly toil
  D                G
Shuffle off this mortal coil
  D              G
Turn your body back to soil
  C   D
It's OK, It's OK

[Chorus]
G
When you get hung up
                        Em
Hang yourself up by the neck
Em                                     G
What the hell, what the hell, what the heck


D
stomp on the moon and spit in the ocean
                    A         D
razzmatazz and I love you
D
holy smokes and land negotiation
                    A         D
you can do anything that you want to do
D
you can sing four songs
you can dance ten dances
eat twelve candies
  A         D
drink eight beers
D
break two rules
and take six chances
laugh nine laughs
      A         D
and shed three tears
D
eat that watermelon
drink that moonshine
                    A         D
she's the lady and you're the lord
D
a mail pouch chew will keep you in line
                        A         D
drive all over in her grandaddy's ford
D
small talk big talk hugs and kisses
                         A         D
strum a little number on the big guitar
D
if you want to charm the bonnet off your mrs.
                             A         D
go out and catch a firefly, stick him in a jar
A
Ooh! take off her clothes
and throw her in the river
                    A         D
wash her body and stick it in the sun
D
give that gal everything you can give her
you can give her the bullets
               A         D
if you can give her the gun
