 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                       
 doomed and we're drowned by this feeling we surround so I
 D               A            D  
 hope that I get old before I die
 
 Chorus:
 A           
 ohhhhhhhhhhh
        D                          G                   
 It's a long long rope they use to hang you soon I hope
       A                                D          
 And I wonder why this hasn't happened, why why why
       D                                 G             Gm   
 And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt
       D               A            D  
 And I hope that I get old before I die
