| Hold up in a d | ressing | room without a dress |
| D | C | D | |
| Kneeling at the conf | essional with nothing to | confess |
| C | |
| And I knew | all about my surprised party |
| G | Em | |
| I was | spoiled and | depressed |
| G | Bm | |

| Food stamp cheque and c | redit cards |
| C | G | |
| But they | only accepted | cash |
| C | |

| What did u expect me to do |
| Bm | |

| So I kept sleepwalking and talking in my sleep |
| Yes I did my best |
| And I did the best that I could do |
| With all the mess that I've been through |
| What did u expect me to do |
| I did my best for you |
| I did my best for you |
| I did my best for you |
