Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Here comes Mr. Misery
 He's tearin out his hair  again
 He's crying over her  again
Standing in  the supermarket
Shouting  at the customers
Here  comes Mr. Misery
 With a mouthful of gold  and blood
 He's comtemplating  murder  again
He  must be in love
 *Chorus*
 Well she knows  she doesn't want  you
 But you can'tseem  to get in your head
Oh  and you can't sleep  at night
 As she haunts  you in your bed
 When your tired  of talking
 And you can't  drink it down
 So you hang  around and drown instead
Home  isn't where it used  to be
Home  is anywhere you hang  your  head
 You hang your head,  Home is anywhere
 You hang your head,  Home is anywhere
 You hang your head,  Home is anywhere
 You hang your head
 Here comes Mr. Misery
 Lookin for a place for his mouth to shoot saying
 You look cute in your birthday suit
 You tore him out and screwed him up
 like a bent page in a naughty picture book
 The day ended as it began
 except he was sicker and older than
 The man he was this morning and
 The world has wiped its mouth since then
 or maybe it was yawning
