Artist: They Might Be Giants Song: I Hope That I Get Old Before I Die Album: They Might Be Giants (Sound effects) [Verse 1]
D                           A
Sometimes I feel like bein' wispy

    G                                 D
And once in a while I feel like bein' dry

          F#                               G
But we're doomed and we're drowned by this feeling we surround

     D               A            D
So I hope that I get old before I die
[Chorus]
A
ohhhhhhhhhhh

       D                          G
It's a long long rope they use to hang you soon I hope

      A                                D
And I wonder why this hasn't happened, why why why

      D                                 G             Gm
And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt

      D               A            D
And I hope that I get old before I die
(Sound effects) [Verse 2]
D                              A
Clear off the kitchen table darling

    G                             D
For on the kitchen table I must lie

         F#                                G
I'm just tired for my wife just served the banquet of my life

      D               A            D
And I hope that I get old before I die
[Chorus]
A
ohhhhhhhhhhh

       D                          G
It's a long long rope they use to hang you soon I hope

      A                                D
And I wonder why this hasn't happened, why why why

      D                                 G             Gm
And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt

      D               A            D
And I hope that I get old before I die

And I wonder why this hasn't happened, why why why

      D                                 G             Gm
And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt

      D               A            D
And I hope that I get old before I die
