Intro: C G Am / F C G /
C G Am
I gave up coffee and cigarettes
F C G
I hate to say it hasn’t helped me yet
C G Am
I thought my problems would just dissipate
F C G
And all my pain would be in yesterday
Same pattern: C G Am / F C G /
I poured my booze all down the kitchen drain
And watched my bad habits get flushed away
I thought that that would keep my head on straight
And all my pain would be in yesterday
F
But it’s true
G
I’m still blue
C G Am
But I finally know what to do
F G C G Am/
I must quit, I must quit, you
Same Pattern: C G Am/ F C G/
I thought that if I didn’t go and play
The sadness would get bored and go away
I thought that if I didn’t go astray
That all my pain would be in yesterday
F
But it’s true
G
I’m still blue
C G Am
But I finally know what to do
F G C G Am/
I must quit, I must quit, you
Same Pattern: C G Am/ F C G/
I sold my guitar and my piano
I thought that it was these that kept me low
I thought if only I could try and change
That all my pain would be in yesterday
F
But it’s true
G
I’m still blue
C G Am
But I finally know what to do
F G C G Am/
I must quit, I must quit, you
F G C G Am/
I must quit, I must quit, you
