[Verse 1]
[Ab5] I got it bad, you don't know how bad I got it
[Ab5] You got it easy, you don't know when you got it good
[Ab5] It'[(add7)]s getting harder, just keeping life and soul together
[Ab5] I'm[(add7)] sick of fighting, ev[A]en though I k[E]now I shouldn't
[Bridge]
[Eadd9] The cold is biting thru [Ebm]each and every [Bbm]nerve and fibre

And [Dmaj9]wouldn't it be [G5]good, if [Em9]we could w[A]ish our[F#7-9]selves a[Bm]way
[Dmaj9]Wouldn't it be [G5]good to [Em9]be on [A]your side
The [Dmaj9]grass is always [G5]greener [Em9]over [A]there
Dmaj9 G5 Em9 A F#7-9 | Bm | Bm C# |
Wouldn't it be good, if we could live without a care
[Verse]
[Ab5] You must be joking, you don't know a thing about it
[Ab5] You've got no problem, I'd stay right there if I were you
[Ab5] I g[(add7)]ot it harder, you couldn't dream how hard I got it
[Ab5] Sta[(add7)]y out of my shoes, if y[A]ou know what's g[E]ood for you
[Bridge]
[Eadd9] The heat is stifling, bur[Ebm]ning me up from [Bbm]me inside
[Bbm] The sweat is coming thru [Db]each and every [Abm]pore
[Bsus2] I don't wanna be here no more
[ Bsus2 ]
I don't wanna be here no more
