My Auntie Eleanor had a very unhappy husband | G# C# | |
who hated his job and hated his life | A E G A | |
So he wanted to drive his tan Chevy | F#m7 | |
off of a bridge because he hated his car | F#m7 B | |
and he hated his life | B | |
He couldn't silence the ever present thought | F#m7 | |
"I'm doing all I can yet I'm an unsuccessful man" | B | |
And his heart was blank | Emaj7 | |
don't we know what blank people are good for | Amaj7 Amaj7/G# | |
what they are good for? | C#m7 D#m7 C#m7 D#m7 |
My Auntie Eleanor had a very unhappy husband | G# C# | |
who just couldn't escape or catch a break | A E G A | |
So he wanted to ride his bike | F#m7 | |
blindfolded into traffic | F#m7 | |
cause he hated his bike and he hated his life | B | |
His heart was consumed with guilt | F#m7 | |
from the knowledge he had not | Fm#7 | |
become a successful man | B | |

Till one day my Auntie introduced him | E F#m | |
to her friend named Gwendoline | G#7 G | |
