Intro: Bm A/B Bm Bm7 A/F# Bm7
       Aadd9/B Bm Aadd9/F# A/B Bm

    A/F#    Bm
I’m getting bored
Being part of mankind,
              D7
There’s not a lot to do no more,
G7                      E7
This race is a waste of time.

Bm
People rushing everywhere,
D7
Swarming around like flies,
G7
Think I’ll buy a forty-four,
E7                 F#7
Give ‘em all a surprise.

Chorus:
   D7
     Think I’m gonna kill myself,
   E7
     Cause a little suicide,
   A7
     Stick around for a couple of days,
   G                D
     What a scandal if I died.

   D7
     Yeah, I’m gonna kill myself,
   E7
     Get a little headline news.
   A7
     I’d like to see what the papers say
            G7               D
     On the state of teenage blues.

Instrumental: D D D A/C# | Bm Bm Bm D/A
              G G G D/F# | Em F#7

Bm
A rift in my family,
D7
I can’t use the car,
G7
I gotta be in by ten o’clock,
E7
– Who do they think they are?

Bm
I’d make an exception
       D7
If you want to save my life,
G7
Brigitte Bardot gotta come
    E7           F#7
And see me every night.

Chorus:
   D7
     I think I’m gonna kill myself,
   E7
     Cause a little suicide,
   A7
     Stick around for a couple of days,
   G                D
     What a scandal if I died.

   D7
     Yeah, I’m gonna kill myself,
   E7
     Get a little headline news.
   A7
     I’d like to see what the papers say
            G7               D
     On the state of teenage blues.

Instrumental: D D D A/C# | Bm Bm Bm D/A
              G G G D/F# | Em F#7

              D7 | E7 | A7 | G7 D
              D7 | E7 | A7

            G7               D
     On the state of teenage blues.

Instrumental: D D D A/C# | Bm Bm Bm D/A
              G G G D/F# | Em F#7

   D7
     Kill myself,
   E7         A7
     Suicide,
   G                D
     What a scandal if I died.

   D7
     Suicide,
   E7               A7
     Headline news.
            G7               D
     On the state of teenage blues.
