Too much of nothing can make a man ill at ease.

One man's temper rises
              C                  G
where another man's temper might freeze.
             D         Eb

and we cannot mock the soul.

no one has control.

Well too much of nothing can cause a man to weep.

He can walk the streets and like most and boast,
     C              G
but would he like to keep?

But it's all been done before,

it's all been written in the book.

Now too much of nothing
           C       G
can make a man a liar.

It can cause some men to sleep on nails,

it can cause others to eat fire.
          D         Eb
Everybody's doing something,
    E          F
I heard it in a dream.
                F#            G

it just makes a fellow mean.
