G                         D
The lamp is broken on the mantle
G                              D
My mind is blown and I'm going away
G                            D
It's getting more than I can handle
G                            D
It's getting more than I can take


Chorus:
C          D              G
I couldn't stay here if I wanted
C          D              Em    C 
I couldn't stay here if I tri-i-ied
C        D            G     G/F#  Em
You were always so disappointed in  me
C          D                G      D C
I couldn't never do nothing right


And I worked hard to make a living
To make a living good for you
But you wanted more than I was giving
I guess that was more than I could do
