VERSES 1 and 2
       D2               Am
Well I heard about your happiness
F            G                   D2        Am  F  G
 And all the plans that you're involved in
D2                      Am
Since you've gone you'd be impressed
F          G               D2     Am
To know I, too, have been evolving
F                            G
 But I don't think you comprehend

CHORUS:
          D         G
I've been suffering
          B         Em
I've been suffering
              Bb5 A5   G5                  D  G
Guess I'll be suffering up around the bend

VERSE 3:
Am
I hung around in a leather bar
Am                              F
low e string               -5-3-1-
They threw me on the cement
F
I Slept all night in my plastic car
F                     C
a string         -8-7-3
Got in an accident
C                       Csus4
I brushed by you in the supermart
C
a string                      -3-  
And I had me a touch of what's real
                     Bb5        A5        G
a string-2-----------1-
It was real when you crushed me with your steel

Black clouds roll through my mind
Who says anyway these halls are sovereign?
I am a hater of the human kind
So keep away, this hearts not softening
No, I don't think it's the end of this suffering
