I'm So Tired

Words & Music:

John Lennon & Paul McCartney

 

    A  G#       D               E7

I'm so tired, I haven't slept a wink.

    A  F#m7  D           E7

I'm so tired, my mind is on the blink.

  A               E+         F#m          Dm7

I wonder should I get up and fix myself a drink.

Dm7

No, no, no.

 

I'm so tired, I don't know what to do.

I'm so tired, my mind is set on you.

I wonder should I call you, but I know what you would do.

 

A

You'd say I'm putting you on.

A

But it's no joke, it's doing harm.

           E7

You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain.

E7

You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane.

             D                                                  A

You know I'd give you everything I've got for a little piece of mind.

 

I'm so tired, I'm feeling so upset.

Although I'm so tired, I'll have another cigarette.

And curse Sir Walter Raleigh, he was such a stupid get!

 

You'd say I'm putting you on.

But it's no joke, it's doing harm.

You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain.

You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane.

You know I'd give you everything I've got for a little piece of mind.

I'd give you everything I've got for a little piece of mind.

I'd give you everything I've got for a little piece of mind.
