C                          F           C
  Don't ask me about the things I've done
Em       Am             C       Am
  Can't tell you who's lost or won
G        C
  All I know is
F          C          G   C  F  G
  I had a hell of a time

C                      F         C
  Don't ask me about where I've been
Em   Am            C               Am
  I can't explain the things I've seen
G             C
  But I can tell you
F             C          G  C  F  G

[Bridge]

E                B7         E       C
  I bought a ticket and I took the ride
Am            Bm
  But now I can't get off
         C                  D
  Though heaven know I've tried and tried

G      D              F      A
  You see it written on my face
Em    Am              C           Am
  A touch of grief, a brush with grace
           G            C
  You can see it in my eyes
F          C          G
  I had a hell of a time
     C          G
  A hell of a time
