Start Jamming...
Everybody in the world needs a little pity, but this song is titled, Don't [G] Pity Me.
How can you be so stupid to ask [Bm] people?
Huh?
Yeah.
[B]
[B] [G] [A#] [C#m] What?
[F] [Bm]
[A#] [A] Huh?
[F#m]
You [E] put me down, going up the hill, believing in your heart [E] that [G] I would stand still.
But you know my [D] life, people is just [G] one bitty pit.
Don't pity me.
[D] [Am] [A]
[E] I've hardened my heart, [G]
it has [A] no more [D] pain.
[E] [G] Well, every luck in my home [G]
will be my gain.
[E] You know time, time [G] changes everything.
[Bm] Don't pity [F] me.
You [D] [A] know why?
I can walk by myself, stay by myself.
[D] I don't even, even have to bother you.
[G] Oh well, friends, I guess my only happiness is [A] just to hold on.
Hold on to my blue.
Skies are [G] blue.
[E] So am I,
[G] pretending I'm happy.
God knows I'm dissatisfied.
[D] But I'm just too, too damn [G] evil to cry.
[D] Don't pity me.
[D] Because [G] once upon a time, your time was my time, all the time.
But it seemed like the time that you had for me, now is gone.
And you know that I'm having a little tough luck.
But I'm not gonna [G] give up.
I'm [Am] gonna just keep on holding [A] on.
Skies [G] are blue.
[D] So am I, [E] pretending I'm happy.
God knows [G] I'm dissatisfied.
I'm just [E]
too, just too mean [G] to cry.
[D] Don't pity me.
[G] [D]
[Am] [N]
