D                           G 
I don't want to be a pioneer

A singer sings a sad song when he's sad

But honey all these years I've been upset 
                               Bm                    A 
I've slowly turned the kind of blue that keeps your jeans dry

Now I don't need to reinvent the wheel

It's all so sad 
             A 
It's all so sad 

D                        G  
All broke, all beat, all twisted feet 
Bm                 A 
And so on and so forth

And go on, go forth 
A 
Go on, go forth

Ah dee-da dee-da 

D                                      G 
So hell I thought I knew why I was here 
   D                               G   A 
To find myself a girl who makes me sad 
D                                     G 
But I went looking round and all I found 
                               Bm                  A 
Was this here one who makes me tea and brings the crossword 
D                                    G 
So how am I supposed to bring us down 
D                                 G   A 
To think that I got used to being sad 
              G   A 
And sometimes down 
           G   A 
And always blue 
A                 A 
And did I mention sad? 

D                        G  
All broke, all beat, all twisted feet 
Bm               A 
And so on and so forth 
D                               G 
So don't steal, don't lie, just tie your tie 
        Bm 
And go on, go forth 
A 
Go on, go forth

All broke, all beat, all twisted feet 
       Bm        A 
And so on and so forth 
         D                      G 
So don't steal, don't lie, just tie your tie 
       Bm     G 
And go on, go forth 
   Bm     G 
Go on, go forth

Just...go
