Verse 1
            E                      E  
Well I been rolled & ragged, I been bruised and battered
      E                       E
I been made to bow down on my knees 
          E                         E
And I been tricked & cheated, I been plain mistreated
         E
But now I don't need no one's sympathy

Chorus
        C#m           E                  C#m            E        
'Cause I keep, I keep moving through the deep recess of time
        C#m          E 
I don't need my luck improving
  A
I believe that I'll be happy
                       E                 E   
Just as long as I can get myself some relief

Verse 2 
            E                           E    
You see I'm feared and frightened, I got chased by lightning          
              E                           E   
I had had that big bad wolf break down my door
           E                           E
And I been sold down the lake, I got-a stung by heartache
        E                           E       
Now I'm cursed with headaches and remorse

Chorus

Verse 3
              E                        E
You see I been bought & broken, I got-a rudely awoken
         E                       E
You know I've chose to hold that bloody knife
           E                            E
And I been drowned in the water, I got-a run right over
          E                           E 
You know I rolled that boulder all my life

Chorus

Verse 4 
            E                           E 
Well I been kidnapped by fleas, I caught every disease
           E                            E
And all my, all my doctors closed their doors
           E                               E 
And I been stitched up, shook down, I been messed with, f**ked around
           E                E       
And now I, I ain't angry anymore
