Miss Misery

Chords
pin

my first tab i did this for a tenor in gCEA tuning 
also sounds good on my low g and c uke maybe better even


Dm   C       Bb          F 
I'll fake it through the day
          Dm*                     Gm
With some help from Johnny Walker Red
         F      Am   C        Bm
Send the poison rain down the drain
   F                      A (Fill here**)
To put bad thoughts in my head 

Dm  C       Bb      F
Two tickets torn in half
      Dm*               Gm
And a lot of nothin' to do
       F    C  Bb   F  G
Do you miss me Miss Misery
         Bb      F
Like you say you do

Ab           Cm
A man in the park
         F           Ab
Read the lines on my hand
           Cm
Told me I'm strong
            C
Hardly ever wrong I said

Man you mean

Dm      C         Bb      F
You had plans for both of us
     Dm*                    Gm
That involved a trip out of town
     F          Am        C   Bb
To a place I've seen in a magazine
     F                 A (Fill here**)
That you'd left lyin' around

Dm      C        Bb   
I don't have you with me
F     Dm*             Gm
But I keep a good attitude
       F    C   Bb   F  G
Do you miss me, Miss Misery
         Bb      F
Like you say you do

Dm                         Bb
I know you'd rather see me gone
        F          G7         Bm
Than to see me the way that I am
                 C         A7
But I am in your life any way

Dm   C        Bb  F
Next door the TVs flashing
Dm*                Gm
Blue frames on the wall
       F   Am    C          Bb
It's a comedy of errors you see
      F             A (Fill here**)
It's about taking a fall

Dm    C     Bb   F   Dm*
To vanish into oblivion
             Gm
It's easy to do
      F        C          Bb
And I tried to be but you know me
F      G             Bb      F   C
I come back when you want me to.
       F    C   Bb   F  G
Do you miss me, Miss Misery
         Bb      F
Like you say you do

Chords used: (string order is 4321)
Dm (2210) C (0003) Bb (3211) F (2010) Gm (0765) Am (2000) 
A (2100) A7 (0100)G (0232) Ab (1343) Cm (5333)
use the Cm here or it wont sound quite right the Ab and Gm dont matter

*these Dm are Gm7add9 I think but I dont know that chord on
the uke I substituted Dm for my lack of knowledge. 
it stillsounds close enuf for me

** the fill I use here is a switch from A to A7 and then
finishing on Dm which starts the next verse in all 3 cases.

Once again I just dont know what the actual fill is so I
improvise something easy that works well enuf

if any one comes up with these let me know - Topher
