Chorus:
                          G      C                          D
But I'm doin' my best every day and every night

                           G         C                           D
Hangin' on by a thread that's stretched just a little too tight

  Em                          A                    G
C
If I can't find some peace of mind I'll take what I can get

                            D
I ain't doin' much good but I'm doin' my best

G     C     D     G    C    D

G              C                  D
I decided I'd get smart and have a long talk with my heart

C                    D                        G
at some quiet spot outside of town

     C
 so I took my best friends Pontiac

  D                        G      C
I drove it like a maniac right into the reservoir

D                                                             C
I guess we ain't best friends no more

                                           D                              G
D&F# C
Just my luck a cop came by who I beat up in Junior high

                                                  D
  He said I better have a good excuse

    C                                                       D
If I can ever find a place to show my face again
