G                       C

Don't seem like happiness will come along

Well I've been lonely for so long
G                                C
Don't seem like happiness will come along

Everybody's throwing rocks in my bed

Just can't seem to get ahead in life
C                     B           C
Nothing I do seems to turn out right
