 You could hear him screaming
       E                 A
As he looked beyond the door
    E             A
His only son was lying
      E              A
In a heap upon the floor
     E                   A
And from his wrists that opened wide
     E                    A      E    A
His life has flowed from deep insiiiiide
CHORUS:
D             G      C         G   C
  And in his hand a note that reeeeead
      G     C         G  C
It's better   if I'm dead
       Em                 Em7
'Cause his whole life was bad,
         G        D    Em
All the times we never had
   F                  Bb               Eb     D
I can't say it's been nice because it wasn't
      G            D               Em
And, mama, please forgive me if I messed the rug
     C                D        G
But you can have it cleaned tomorrow
D        G                  D
Oh, and you'll find some excuse
         Em          Em7
To tell your garden club
     C                   D          G     G  F
I'm sure they'll all express their sorrow
VERSE:
E                   F#m
 You could see them running
          E               F#m
As they tried to get some help
            E                  A
Yeah, the neighboors all were pourin' in
    E                A
To say how bad they felt
     E                A
How could this happen in our town
   E               A     E  A
I hope it doesn't get around
CHORUS:
D            G      C         G    C
 And in his hand a note that reeeeeead
      G     C         G  C
It's better   if I'm dead
       Em                 Em7
'Cause his whole life was bad,
         G        D    Em
All the times we never had
   F                  Bb               Eb     D
I can't say it's been nice because it wasn't
      G           D               Em
And, daddy, even this can have a good side
        C                      D              G        D
'Cause here's your chance for cutting all my hair off
         G               D             Em        Em7
Oh, and from today I'll never let you down again
        C                D          G
'Cause now your biggest problem is taken care of
