[Verse 1]
   B
A resignation, my resignation, from the space station
                                 G#m
I've got to get out before they let me go, before they let me go
B
Inebriation, my intoxication, needed medication
                           G#m                                   G#m G F#
I've gotta get out before they let me go, before they let me go


[Chorus]
  F#                              G#m G F#
Then I caught a cold wind one night
  F#
They took me to a place I swore I'd die
         B
Now I'm feelin' so much better
                       F#
Livin' in this weather
     F#                                     G#m G F#
I'm gettin' green, oh yeah I'm gettin' right
      F#
I'm gettin' by on getting by
     B
Now life is so much better

I'm handin' in this letter
     E
I'm beggin' for this kind of life
    A                       B
I wish that they'd accept my resignation


[Verse 2]
 B
They say I'm crazy, boy, they say I'm lazy, I better hit up Daisy
                           G#m
And head to the last call tavern tonight, tavern tonight
 B
Emancipation, my aproclaimation, hop up in this Lincoln
                             G#m                                   G#m G F#
We'll head to the last call tavern tonight, last call tavern tonight


[Chorus]
  F#                              G#m G F#
Then I caught a cold wind one night
  F#
They took me to a place I swore I'd die
         B
Now I'm feelin' so much better
                      G#m G F#
Livin' in this weather
     F#                                     G#m G F#
I'm gettin' green, oh yeah I'm gettin' right
      F#
I'm gettin' by on getting by
     B
Now life is so much better

I'm handin' in this letter
     E
I'm beggin' for this kind of life
    A                       B
I wish that they'd accept my resignation
 B
