A Cockeyed Optimist
4 -4 5 5 5 5 -4 4 -3 3 3
When the sky is a bright ca-nar-y yel-low
-3 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4 -3 3 -2
I for-get ev-'ry cloud I've ev-er seen,
2 -2 3 -3 4 -3 -3 5 -2 -2
So they call me a cock-eyed op-ti-mist
-2 -2 3 -5 -5 -5 5 -4 -2
Im-ma-ture and in-cur-a-bly green.
4 -4 5 5 5 5 -4 4 -3 3 3
I have heard peo-ple rant and rave and bel-low.
-3 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4 -3 3 -2
That we're done and we might as well be dead,
2 -2 3 -3 4 -3 -3 5 -2 -2
But I'm on-ly a cock-eyed op-ti-mist
-2 -2 3 -5 -5 -5 5 -4 4
And I can't get it in-to my head.
5 5 -3 -3 -3 -3 -3 -3 2 2 2 2
I hear the hu-man race is fall-ing on it's face
-3 -3 -3 -3 -3 -4 5 -3
And has-n't ver-y far to go,
-3 5 -3 -3 -3 -3
But ev-'ry whip-poor-will
-3 -3 4 4 4 4
Is sell-ing me a bill,
2 -2 -2 -2 -2 -3 -3 -4
And tell-ing me it just ain't so.
4 -4 5 5 5 5 -4 4 -3 3 3
I would say life is just a bowl of jel-lo
-3 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4 -3 3 -2
And ap-pear more in-tel-li-gent and smart,
2 -2 3 -3 4 -3
But I'm stuck like a dope,
4 -4 5 5 -5
With a thing called hope,
5 -5 6 -5 6 6 -5 6 6
And I can't get it out of my heart!
4 -4 4 -3 4
Not this heart! |
