Standard (EADGBE)

I'm a mess

I should be filling rooms with the sweet smell of success

I'm a mess look at what I've been reduced to

I don't blame you for sayin no when you should have said yes

But darlin, darlin, darlin, look at me now I'm a mess

I'm a mess, I'm a wreck I'm really on the deck

 I'm a mess, look at how I'm living

Some of these days I'm gonna get back on my feet and quit this blue address

 But darlin, darlin, darlin, in the meantime I'm a mess

The smart set, I used to run around with are invisible now

They all cut me loose when one said that what I've got might just rub of on

 them somehow

 I'm a mess, for want of your caress

Darlin, darlin, darlin, look at me now I'm a mess
