The Original Mixed-Up Kid

G Am D


[Verse 1]
     G                     Am
The original mixed-up kid, sleeps with the ladies all night
D                            G
Home in the morning light to nothin'
       G                   Am
Climbs in to an empty bed, pillows around his head
D                           G
Hide the tears he sheds for no one


[Bridge]
    C          D                   G   D/F# Em
And Byron said happiness is born a twin
   C                    D                G  D/F# Em
In those who share, for they will always win
    C                      D
But what about the man who tries so hard
        G        D/F#       Em A D
But his heart is locked within


[Verse 2]
     G                               Am
The original mixed-up kid, must have been at the end of the line
          D                              G
When they gave out the forms to sign for someone


[Bridge]
       C                 D                      G D/F# Em
And he can't make up his mind where he wants to go
              C                    D                       G   D/F# Em
Ain't there a heaven ain't there a hell well he just don't know
         C              D
For in a crowded street he can see the sleet
         G         D/F#         Em  Am D
When the other men just see the snow


[Verse 3]
     G                    Am
The original mixed-up kid be on your conscience bound
        D                          G
For you turned him upside down for nothin'


[Outro]
        E           G
Whoa-oh-oh. Whoa-oh-oh
        E           G
Whoa-oh-oh. Whoa-oh-oh
        E           G
Whoa-oh-oh. Whoa-oh-oh
        E           G
Whoa-oh-oh. Whoa-oh-oh
