[Verse 1]
I [Am]sold my soul for the [F]second time,
'cause the [C]man don't [B]pay [E]me.
I [Am]begged my landlord for some [F]more time,
he said [C]"Son, the bill's [B]wai[E]ting."
My [Am]best friend called me the [F]other night,
he said, [C]"Man, are you [B]cra[E]zy?"
My [Am]girlfriend told me to get [F]a life,
she said, [C]"Boy, you [B]la [E]zy."

[Chorus 1]
[Dm]But I don't mind[Am], as long [Dm]as there's a
bed beneath the [Am]stars that shine.
[Dm]I'll be fine[Am] - if you give[F] me a minute,
a man's got a limit.
I [G]can't get a life if my [E]heart's not in it.

[Verse 2]
I [Am]lost my faith in the [F]summertime,
'cause it [C]don't stop [B]rai[E]ning
The [Am]sky all day is as black [F]as night,
but I [C]know I can't [B]blame [E]me.
I [Am]begged my Doctor for one [F]more line,
he said [C]"Son, words [B]fail [E]me!"
There [Am]ain't no place to be [F]killing time,
I guess [C]I'm just [B]la [E]zy.

[Chorus 3]
[Dm]I don't mind[Am], as long [Dm]as there's a
bed beneath the [Am]stars that shine.
[Dm]I'll be fine[Am] - give [F]me a minute,
a man's got a limit.
I [G]can't get a life if my [E]heart's not in it.
