Im Up To My Neck In Iou

Gene Pitney

 GD
 For twenty-two days I've stood in the welfare line
 D7G
Without an education a job was hard to find
 G7C
And up in front of me were ten thousand plus nine
 GDG
And I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s and down to my last dime

 GD
 I tried to sell some pencils on the street
 D7G
But found my luck to sell was just weak
 G7C
I'm ashamed to have to pretend that I am blind
 GDGG7
But I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s and down to my last dime  

 DG
Well I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s, I owe everybody in town
 AA7D
Everyday I say I'm getting on up put I keep going down

And I've signed every paper in town that I could sign
But I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s and down to my last dime

Well the internal revenue department is having fits
They claim I underpaid them by six pence
If I wound up in court I'll serve out ninety-nine
Well I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s and down to my last dime
Yes I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s and down to my last dime
