Let’s Get Miserable Together Words and music by Lynn Gold © 2009F G C Right now I’m in a lousy mood F G C My muscles that smile are sore F G C Em Am But if I do the opposite Dm G I’ll overwork the other sixty-four F G C I can’t stand cheerful people F G C Not that I should complain F G C Em Am But since misery loves company Dm G I thought perhaps you’d like to do the same [Chorus] F G C Let’s get miserable together F G C Spend our time bringing each other down F G C Em Am Let’s get miserable together F G C A frown is just a smile turned upside down F G C Let’s get miserable together F G C Moan and whine and gripe the whole day long F G C Em Am Let’s get miserable together D G C ‘Cause that explains the purpose of this song I hate it when the sun is bright Especially when I’m asleep I hate it when the rain falls down Precipitation’s nasty when it leaks Children who scream in airplanes While kicking in my seat Airlines nickel-ing and diming us Yet never serving plastic food to eat [Chorus] Am C Why must the cat hork on my brand new carpet? F G C Why did the dog use my floor? Am C They weren’t even my dog or cat D G Come here and take them; they’re yours Am C Why must somebody take the seat in front F G C Who’s taller than six-foot-three? Am C Em Am Why must there always be somebody else D G Who’s better at something than me? [Chorus chords Ad lib a solo, whistle the melody-I’ll either glare at you or do a bad imitation of whatever you do] When someone takes two parking spots And I can’t find any place Why won’t someone design a thing That lets me blast slow drivers into space? Why is it no machine breaks While under warranty? And why must I have to write a song To make you just as miserable as me? [Chorus]
