  			C                             Am 
When I'm lonely I think about someone 
  
F              G7         C 
Someone I call Sweet Misery 

G7     C             Am 
In her arms I was in heaven 
  
    F             G7        C 
But heaven wasn't meant for me 


                             Am 
I still love her oh but I've lost her 
  
F                       G7          C 
When she walked out the hurt walked in 

G7      C                        Am 
Now our love's gone just like an old song 
  
     F                    G7   C 
That no one ever wants to hear again 


                              Am 
I count heartaches that a big fool makes 
  
F                    G7        C 
And I think about my Sweet Misery 

G7    C               Am 
To my sorrow each new tomorrow 
  
F                               G7               C 
Proves there ain't never been a bigger fool than me 


                        Am 
Cause in her arms I was in heaven  

F                 G7        C 
But heaven wasn't meant for me 

G7      C                        Am 
Oh when I'm lonely I think about someone 
  
F              G7        C 
Someone I call Sweet Misery 


F              G7        C 
Someone I call sweet misery  

F              G7        C 
Someone I call sweet misery
