Intro:
Bm  Em, D   F#7(x2)
Verse 1:
BmI remember Emwhen, DI saw the sea F#7freeze.
BmBut it said Emnothing, Dabout the birds and the F#7bees.
They were Bmswarming around my Emhead; Dyou'd be better off F#7dead.
Bridge 1:
But I Gain't going down like F#mthat.
I Gain't going down like F#mthat.
Chorus 1:
'Cos I'm Bmbetter than him and I Emknow where I've been,
You Dknow where I'm coming F#7from.
And I'm Bmhired to sin, but Emdon't we all sin?
DThat is the truth and the F#7truth is grim.
It ain't Bmeasy in jail; the Emstories for sale,
Your Dfather has died, while he's F#7gripped for bail.
He Bmpoints to the west and he Emleaves out the rest,
And Dwants you to be his F#7special guest.
Interlude:
GOoh..F#m. Gooh..F#m.
Verse 2:
BmI remember Emwhen, DI saw the leaves F#7fall.
BmI was in the Emwoods,
And the Ggown you wouldn't wear to the F#7Ball.
BmInto the ditch I Emfly; Dwanted dead or a-F#7live.
Bridge 2:
But I Gain't going down like F#mthat.
No, I Gain't going down like F#mthat.
Chorus 2:
'Cos I'm Bmbetter than him and I Emknow where I've been,
You Dknow where I'm coming F#7from.
And I'm Bmhired to sin, but Emdon't we all sin?
DThat is the truth and the F#7truth is grim.
It ain't Bmeasy in jail; the Emstories for sale,
Your Dfather has died, while he's F#7gripped for bail.
He Bmpoints to the west and he Emleaves out the rest,
And Dwants you to be his F#7special guest.
Interlude:
GOoh..F#m. Gooh..F#m.

DThat is the truth and the F#7truth is grim.
