Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Eve[G]ry [D]mor[G]ning I[A]
read [G]the pa[D]pers,
espe[G]cially the death notices.
Today there [A]was someone's mother
[G]who will be greatly [D]missed.[A]
[D]Wha[A]t gra[F#sus4]bbed me most
was a [F#]guy my age
who left be[B]hind a [A]family of [G]three.
[D]I e[A]njoy o[G]ther people's m[D]isery[G][D]
[G]Now a [D]carefree day [F#]can s[D]care me
[G]There's too many ways I can go
I could be [A]doing bad or doing good
How [G]would I even [D]know?
[G]I f[F#]ind myself just hoping for
A [Bm]bulletin [A]on [G]TV
I'm [D]reas[A]sured [F#]by o[G]ther
people's [D]misery[A][G]
Something [D]about [A]other[G]
people's [D]misery
Give me [A]a natu[Bm]ral d[F#]isaster
Or one of [G]human design
Give me [E]my remote, the all -news channel
And [A]I'll be just [D]fine[A][G][D][A]
[Bm][G][D][A][Bm][G][D][G][D]
[G]Now before [D]you go de[G]cide
[D]I'm [G]someone to whom you can't relate
Think [A]back on when you heard
about the neighbor's divorce
[G]Didn't your mood [D]elevate?
[G]I k[D]now you felt guilty a[Bm]bout i[D]t
It's [A]just [G]something about the soul
Cause [A]way down deep we all know exactly
For [Bm]whom that [A]old bell [G]tolls
[F#]Me, I'll go on hoping
And someone [Bm]else is worse
[A]off than [G]me
[D]Gettin' [A]by on [G]other people's
[D]misery[A][G][Bm]
[G]Gettin' through the night
[A]on oth[G]er people's mis[D]ery[A][G]
Ah, [D]you and [A]me in [G]other people's

[Outro 1]
