B My, my, but time do fly, F# A When it's in another pair of hands. B And a loser I will be, F# A for I've never been a winner in my life. I got used to stress and pain, I used the sucker pills, and pity for the self. Though it's the animal in me, But I'd rather be a beggar man on the shelf. G F# Don't be so forlorn it's just the payoff E It's the rain before the storm. G F# On a better day I'll take you by the hand E And I'll walk you through the door. G F# Don't be so forlorn it's just the payoff A It's the rain before the storm. Chorus: C G Don't you let my letter get you down.
