Lyrics and chords from therentals.com ca. 2005

These days
I may not be so happy after all
After all that I have gained,
I still feel sad when I'm all alone

I may have failed back at the cave
I may not be so swift after all
All the chances you have given me
I just let you go

These days
I may not be so happy after all
After all that I have gained,
I still feel sad when I'm all alone

I guess I've been like this before
Sometimes, I can't stand up and be a man
But God, why would I lose it now
When I need my strength at hand

You know, sometimes I can be real cool
All the words just seem to flow right along
But, when that girl approaches me
Well, it all goes wrong

These days
I may not be so happy after all
After all that I have gained,
I still feel sad when I'm all alone

These days leave me hopelessly lugubrious
I wish these days would end, oh please end

These days
I may not be so happy after all
After all that I have gained,
I still feel sad when I'm all alone
