Dm C Bb F
I'll fake it through the day
Dm* Gm
With some help from Johnny Walker Red
F Am C Bm
Send the poison rain down the drain

To put bad thoughts in my head
Dm C Bb F
Two tickets torn in half
Dm* Gm
And a lot of nothin' to do
F C Bb F G
Do you miss me Miss Misery
Bb F
Like you say you do
Ab Cm
A man in the park
F Ab
Read the lines on my hand
Cm
Told me I'm strong
C
Hardly ever wrong I said
Man you mean
Dm C Bb F
You had plans for both of us
Dm* Gm
That involved a trip out of town
F Am C Bb
To a place I've seen in a magazine
F A (Fill here**)
That you'd left lyin' around
Dm C Bb
I don't have you with me
F Dm* Gm

F C Bb F G
Do you miss me Miss Misery

I know you'd rather see me gone
F G7 Bm
Than to see me the way that I am
C A7
But I am in your life any way
Dm C Bb F
Next door the TVs flashing
Dm* Gm
Blue frames on the wall
F Am C Bb
It's a comedy of errors you see
F A (Fill here**)
It's about taking a fall

To vanish into oblivion

It's easy to do
F C Bb
And I tried to be but you know me
F G Bb F C
I come back when you want me to
F C Bb F G
Do you miss me Miss Misery

Chords used string order is 3 1
Dm (2210) C (0003) Bb (3211) F (2010) Gm (0765) Am (2000)
A (2100) A7 (0100)G (0232) Ab (1343) Cm (5333)
use the Cm here or it wont sound quite right the Ab and Gm dont matter
these Dm are Gm7add9 I think but I dont know that chord on
the uke I substituted Dm for my lack of knowledge
it stillsounds close enuf for me
the fill I use here is a switch from A to A7 and then
finishing on Dm which starts the next verse in all 3 cases
Once again I just dont know what the actual fill is so I
improvise something easy that works well enuf
if any one comes up with these let me know - Topher
