C           Em            Am     Am7
  I used to wake up in the morning,
G                      G7
  I used to feel so bad.
C       Em             Am        Am7
  I got sick of having sleepless nights,
G
  I went and told my dad.
         Am             Am7         F         E7
He said: Son now here?s some little somethings.
Am                Am7    G   G7
  And stuck them on my  wall.
C            Em                      Am    Am7
  And now my nights aren?t quite so lonely.  In fact I,
G                            G
  I don?t feel bad at all,  I don?t feel bad at all.

VERSE 2:

C              Em                 Am       Am7
  And then one day things weren?t quite so fine,
G                     G   G7
  I fell in love with Lily.
C            Em            Am      Am7
  I asked my dad where Lily I could find he said:
G
  Son now don?t be silly.
Am            Am7                 F      E7
   She?s been dead since nineteen twenty-nine.
Am          Am7       G    G7
   Oh how I cried that night.
C         Em             Am     Am7
  If only I?d be born in Lily?s time,
G
  it would have been al-ri- ght.
