A mournful lament - with electric guitar...
mournful
Story behind the song
We've all wished we'd kept our big mouth shut once or twice...
Lyrics
Em A Em A
I think I started out on the wrong foot
Em A Em A
And now I’m stranded in that same old rut
G D
When will I learn to keep by big mouth shut
G A Em Am….
I guess it must be one of those days
That not so funny joke that you took the wrong way
Six hours ago or was it yesterday
I guess I’m gonna have to pay and pay
I guess it must be one of those days
G Bm
The temperature has dropped about 100 degrees
F# Am
Blood’s running cold now, starting to freeze
F C
D’you wanna see me down upon my knees
E7 F#m C#m B Em Am….
Pleading for mercy – please, please please please….. please..
Sometimes I really ought to bite my tongue
Let’s call it quits before a punch is swung
It must be over soon, it’s time the bell was wrung
I guess it must be one of those days
