Basket Case 

 

 

1. Do you have the time to listen to me whine
|F                         |C                        |G        |G
about nothing and everything all at once?
|C                |G           |Am          |Em
I am one of those melodramatic fools,
     |F              |C                                |G    |G
neurotic to the bone, no doubt about it. 

 

Refr. Sometimes I give myself the creeps.
|F                      |G                              |C    |C
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me.
  |F                        |G    |C             Bb          |Am
It all keeps adding up. I think I’m cracking up.
     |F               |G                     |C         G  |Am G  |C G  |Am G
Am I just paranoid? Am I just stoned? 

 

2. I went to a shrink to analyze my dreams.
She says it’s lack of sex that’s bringing me down.
I went to a whore. She said my life’s a bore,
so quit my whining ‘cause it’s bringing her down.
