Verse 1:
           F7
The nickel dropped when I was on

My way beyond the rubicon
A7
What did I do?
           F7
And of the games that I can handle

None are ones worth the candle
Ab7
What should I do?
F7                G7
I'm a frightened, fickle person
F                 G
Fighting, cryin', kickin', cursin'
E7
What should I do?

Chorus:
      Am            C
Oooh, after all the folderol
    F7           Ab    G
And hauling over coals stops
C
What will I do?

Verse 2:
             F7
Can't take a good day without a bad one

Don't feel just to smile until I've had one
A7
Where did I learn?
         F7
I make a fuss about a little thing

The rhyme is losing to the riddling
Ab7
Where's the turn?
F7             G7
I don't want a home, I'd ruin that
F                       G
Home is where my habits have a habitat
E7
Why give it a turn?

Chorus:
      Am            C
Oooh, after all the folderol
    F7           Ab    G
And hauling over coals stops
C
What did I learn?

Bridge:
Em   F         G
I am likely to miss the main event
Em   F       C7
If I stop to cry or complain again
Em        F        G        Am
So I will keep a deliberate pace
B7                    A7
Let the damned breeze dry my face

Interlude:
   F7        A7
   F7        Ab7
   F7   G7   F     G

Interlude:
   E7
   Am   C
   F7   Ab    G
   C

Bridge:
F7sus2              A7
Ooooh mister wait until you see
F7sus2   Ab7
What I'm gonna be

Verse 3:
F7         G7        F           G
I've got a plan, a demand and it just began
E7
And if you're right, you'll agree
Am     C     F         Ab G       C         C7
Here's coming a better version of me

Outro:
Am      C     F         Ab G       C         C7
Here it comes, a better version of me
Am C     F        Ab     G          C
Here it  comes, a better version of me
