  			This is a correction to the rythm part tabbed before.  It's played a little 
jazzy, so feel free to improvise the rythm and spice it up with some palm 
muting.

Lyrics: 
 
I lied and told her I loved her 
she didn't care but anyway 
I told her we'd still be friends 
and she didn't care but anyway 
I tried last week for to call her 
she wasn't home but anyway 
I think I'll spend my life alone 
I really don't care right now but anyway 
 
=09it's a state of affairs 
=09and a state of emotions 
=09the kind of thing you must 
=09understand 
=09I tell you one thing 
=09you'll tell me another 
=09we walk away 
=09maybe then shake hands 
 
I'm quitting cigarette smoking 
it's bad for me but anyway 
I don't think the TV was joking 
when it told me this but anyway 
the newsman said not to sit on 
strange toilet seats 
it's my life he's trying to save but anyway 
I found out that I got eye cancer 
too many television waves but anyway 
 
=09Chorus 
 
some day an anser will find us 
quite a long shot but anyway 
I think the past is behind us 
be real confusing if not but anyway 
I put all my hope in tomorrow 
it's gonna be great I can tell but anyway 
I see a new day a dawning 
I like to sleep late, oh well, but anyway 
 
=09Chorus 
 
 
 
 
Please contact me if I have made any mistakes.
