CSpilled coffee on my last clean shirt
FKnocked an ashtray on the floor
My hand shakes so that CI can’t hold
A cigarette anyG7more
CThe bed’s not made and I haven’t shaved
FIn a week or two
But I’m getting by the Cbest I can
While G7I’m getting over Cyou
FYou grew restless someCtime ago
D7For some reason G7I still don’t know
CYou said you had to find yourself
FI hope in time you do
And I’ll get by the Cbest I can
While G7I’m getting over Cyou
Today’s like any other day
FIt’s just no day at all
For one or two Cold memories
Of you keep hanging G7on
CI thought in time I’d be alright
FBut time’s against me too
So I’m getting by the Cbest I can
While G7I’m getting over Cyou
FYou grew restless someCtime ago
D7For some reason G7I still don’t know
CYou said you had to find yourself
FI hope in time you do
And I’ll get by the Cbest I can
While G7I’m getting over Cyou
FAnd I’ll get by the Cbest I can
While G7I’m getting over Cyou

Spilled coffee on my last clean shirt

Knocked an ashtray on the floor

My hand shakes so that I can’t hold

A cigarette anymore

The bed’s not made and I haven’t shaved

In a week or two

But I’m getting by the best I can

G7 C

While I’m getting over you

F C

You grew restless sometime ago

D7 G7

For some reason I still don’t know

You said you had to find yourself

I hope in time you do

And I’ll get by the best I can

G7 C

While I’m getting over you

Today’s like any other day

It’s just no day at all

For one or two old memories

Of you keep hanging on

I thought in time I’d be alright

But time’s against me too

So I’m getting by the best I can

G7 C

While I’m getting over you

F C

You grew restless sometime ago

D7 G7

For some reason I still don’t know

You said you had to find yourself

I hope in time you do

And I’ll get by the best I can

G7 C

While I’m getting over you

F C

And I’ll get by the best I can

G7 C

While I’m getting over you
