Suckerpunch Pain
I'm sick of only[C#] ma[E]king peanuts.
[C#]I'm[G#] sick of stale sandwich bread.
[C#]I've got a plan to make it better
[A]And it begins with a [E]simple punch to my head.
[E] [G#] [C#] [A] [B]
Another co[E]unt and I'm down but I'm we[A]aring him [B]down.
[E]Keeping the faith that I've [A]got what it [B]takes.
Deri[E]de my pride but I'[A]ll be alr[B]ight.
I've got a [E]Rocky II lunchbox with [A]bills in it and I[B]'ll scr*pe by.
I have [E]seen this on some [B]episode
Of [C#]Maude, Fish, Chips, [A]or the Whit[B]e Shadow
R[E]erun in my mi[B]nd a thousand ti[C#]mes
Though I forg[A]et the c[B]hannel.
But I am b[E]ack in my corner with [A]ice packs and[B] water
The c[E]hamp's right hook changing my [A]good side to[B] bad.
Too l[E]ate to make a r[A]un for the[B] van
The [E]doc leans in timidly a[A]sking ab[B]out my health plan
I can s[E]ee the refe[B]ree wants to go ho[C#]me
(homey's got a [A]wife and f[B]amily)
And my det[E]ractors clap their [B]hands and blow their [C#]smoke
(Headl[A]ine news in ne[B]xt day's sportspage.)
W[B]ith every second that goes by
I d[B]on't mind my swollen eyes.
'Cause I b[E]et on mys[G#]elf and I'm [A]making a [B]killing.
My opp[E]onent planned [G#]victory, [A]I planned to [B]lose.
My [E]bookie is crying, my w[C#]ife thinks I'm [B]dying
But [E]I've got a n[G#]est egg that's [A]hatching in [B]the final roun[E]d.
[E] [G#] [C#] [A] [B]
And as I [E]fall to the floor I don't f[A]eel so hardc[B]ore
My [E]teeth swinging loose like a d[A]runk girl's ca[B]boose
My [E]boys in the corner are [C#]pensive and s[B]omber
And[E] Father O'Reilly is cr[A]ossing himse[B]lf more and more
I [E]can see the[B] referee wants to [C#]go home
(homey's got a [A]wife and f[B]amily)
And my det[E]ractors clap their [B]hands and blow their [C#]smoke
(Headl[A]ine news in ne[B]xt day's sportspage.)
'Cause I b[E]et on mys[G#]elf and I'm [A]making a [B]killing.
My opp[E]onent planned [G#]victory, [A]I planned to [B]lose.
My [E]bookie is crying, my w[C#]ife thinks I'm [B]dying
But [E]I've got a n[G#]est egg that's [A]hatching in [B]the final roun[E]d.
And the room spins round and round..
B.
The victory party's at my place
[B]After my loss and my disgrace.
'Cause I b[E]et on mys[G#]elf and I'm [A]making a [B]killing.
My opp[E]onent planned [G#]victory, [A]I planned to [B]lose.
My [E]bookie is crying, my w[C#]ife thinks I'm [B]dying
But [E]I've got a n[G#]est egg that's [A]hatching in [B]the final roun[E]d.
