Intro: Cm Bb/C Cm Cm7 Bb/G Cm7

    Bb/G    Cm
I’m getting bored
Being part of mankind,
              Eb7
There’s not a lot to do no more,
G#7                     F7
This race is a waste of time.

Cm
People rushing everywhere,
Eb7
Swarming around like flies,
G#7
Think I’ll buy a forty-four,
F7                 G7
Give ‘em all a surprise.

Chorus:
   Eb7
     Think I’m gonna kill myself,
   F7
     Cause a little suicide,
   Bb7
     Stick around for a couple of days,
   G#               Eb
     What a scandal if I died.

   Eb7
     Yeah, I’m gonna kill myself,
   F7
     Get a little headline news.
   Bb7
     I’d like to see what the papers say
            G#7              Eb
     On the state of teenage blues.

Cm
A rift in my family,
Eb7
I can’t use the car,
G#7
I gotta be in by ten o’clock,
F7
– Who do they think they are?

Cm
I’d make an exception
       Eb7
If you want to save my life,
G#7
Brigitte Bardot gotta come
    F7           G7
And see me every night.

Chorus:
   Eb7
     I think I’m gonna kill myself,
   F7
     Cause a little suicide,
   Bb7
     Stick around for a couple of days,
   G#               Eb
     What a scandal if I died.

   Eb7
     Yeah, I’m gonna kill myself,
   F7
     Get a little headline news.
   Bb7
     I’d like to see what the papers say
            G#7              Eb
     On the state of teenage blues.

     Headline news.
