          A
You fell down of course
            D
And then you got up of course
            A   D
And started over
           A            D
Forgot my name of course
                       A    D Dsus4 C
Then you started to remember
                           G
Pretty tough to think about
                    A    G A C
The beginning of December
                           G
Pretty tough to think about
                        A
Pretty tough to think about
       D                            A  D
Yeah, yeah, pretty tough to think about

                A        D
You're looking down again
                     A   D
And then you look me over
              A        D
We're laying down again
                      A  D Dsus4 C
On a blanket in the clover
                                G
The same boy you've always known
                         A  G A C
Well I guess I haven't grown
                                G
The same boy you've always known
                            A G# G
Same boy you've always known

Think of what the past did
It could've lasted
                   A    G A G# G
So put it in your basket
I hope you know a strong man
Who can lend you a hand
             E
Lowering my casket

I thought this is just today
And soon you'd been returning
The coldest blue ocean water
Cannot stop my heart and mind from burning
Everyone who's in the know, says
That's exactly how it goes
And if there's anything good about me
I'm the only one who knows
