[Verse]
             Bm       Bm7  C           G    
Hold up in a dressing room ■ without a dress
                D                 C          D      
Kneeling at the confessional with nothing to confess
      C                                
And I knew all about my surprised party
  G               Em        
I was spoiled and deppressed
      G                    Bm               
But I acted surprise and I told lots of lies
C            G   
Yes I did my best
                      Bm        
Stop the truck at the truck stop
  C                         G    
I need something to help me crash
                      D           
Food stamp cheque and credit cards
         C             D   
But they only accepted cash
         C                       
That was sweat beating on my brow
   G                           Em   
My heart was beating out of my chest
     G                              Bm       
So I stole everything they couldn't give away
C            G   
Yes I did my best


[Chorus]
              D                   
And I did the best that I could do
Bm                     Am               
With all the mess that I've been through
D                       C 
What did u expect me to do
Bm7   Am7             G  
■   I did my best for you

[Verse]
                          Bm      
I was waiting for a chain reaction
Cmaj7 C         G   
With  a missing link
                 D           
Waiting for that trickle down
C                    D   
Forever circling the sink
      C                   
I was tired of being tired
  G                Em  
I could not get no rest
     G                     Bm                 
So I kept sleepwalking and talking in my sleep
C            G   
Yes I did my best


[Chorus]
              D                   
And I did the best that I could do
Bm                     Am7              
With all the mess that I've been through
D                         
What did u expect me to do
                  C  
I did my best for you
Bm7   Am              G  
■   I did my best for you
