Feel so washed up today

Blood on the pillow on my bed
A A/G A/F# A/F A/F# A/G
Explains the pain that's in my head
G D G D
Sometimes I don't know which way to go
G D G D
Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well

Oh won't someone let me in

I'm stinking and I'm full of gin
A A/G A/F# A/F A/F# A/G
No need to close the door so fast
A A/G A/F# A/F A/F# A/G
I'm very fragile not built to last

It really isn't too much fun

Sitting round waiting for the night to come
