[Intro 1]
[C][C]

[Verse 1]
When [C]I woke up this moni[G]ng,
[F]things were lookin' bad[C]
[F]Seem like total sil[C]ence
was the [G]only [F]friend I [C]had
[G]Bowl of oatmeal tri[F]ed to stare me dow[C]n,
[F]and [C]won
And it was [G]twelve o'clock before I [F]realized
I was [C]havin' [F]no [C]fun
Ah, but [G]fortunately
I [C]have the key to es[F]cape [G]reali[C]ty
And [Dm]you [C]may

[Chorus 1]
[F]see me tonight with an [C]illegal smile
It don't [G]cost very much,
but it [C]lasts a long while
Won't you [F]please tell the man
I didn't [C]kill anyone
No, I'm [G]just tryin' to [F]have me some [C]fun[F]
[C][F][C][F]
[C][C]

[Verse 2]
Last [C]time I checked my [G]bankroll
[F]It was gettin' thi[C]n
Some[F]times it seems like the [C]bottom
Is the [G]only [F]place I've [C]been
[G]I chased a rainbow dow[F]n a one-way str[C]eet
[F]dead [C]end
And [G]all my friends turned [F]out
to be in[C]surance [F]sales[C]men
Ah, but [G]fortunately
I [C]have the key to es[F]cape [G]reali[C]ty
And [Dm]you [C]may

[Chorus 2]
[F]see me tonight with an [C]illegal smile
It don't [G]cost very much,
but it [C]lasts a long while
Won't you [F]please tell the man
I didn't [C]kill anyone
No, I'm [G]just tryin' to [F]have me some [C]fun[F]
[C][F][C][F]
[C][C]

[Verse 3]
Well, I [C]sat down in my [G]closet
[F]with all my overall[C]s
[F]Tryin' to get away[C] from
all the [G]ears in[F]side my [C]walls
[G]I dreamed the police
[F]heard everything I [C]thought, [F]what [C]then?
Well I [G]went to court
and the [F]judge's name [C]was [F]Hoff[C]man
Ah, but [G]fortunately
I [C]have the key to es[F]cape [G]reali[C]ty
And [Dm]you [C]may

[Chorus 3]
[F]see me tonight with an [C]illegal smile
It don't [G]cost very much,
but it [C]lasts a long while
Won't you [F]please tell the man
I didn't [C]kill anyone
No, I'm [G]just tryin' to [F]have me some [C]fun
[F]Well [C]done, hot [F]dog [C]bun, my [F]sister's a [C]nun
