The keeper falls asleep in the hole
I become what he won't allow
Because happy never hurt me at all
But, misery let me down
The man the floor above isn't home
I go out painting the town
I promise not to have a ball
E riff1 A /B
If you see, misery
Going through the things in my place
Won't you do me a favor and
Come invade my space
I've been pretending to care
Crying in the tears of a clown
I promise not to put on airs
But, misery let me down
I'm a shell, in a cell
Looking myself in the face (G)
