VERSE 1:
They call me Mr

They call me Mr Pitiful, thats how I got my
[A#] fame
But people just don't

[G#] feel so blue
They call me Mr
[D#] Pitiful,
[A#] 'cos I lost someone just like
[D#] you
VERSE 2:
The call me Mr

They call me Mr Pitiful, most everyplace I
[A#] go

[G#] such a sad song
Oooh, when he
[D#] lost everything,
[A#] when he lost everything that he
[D#] had

[D#] when somebody has been so very blue
[A#] How can I tell you about my past,
[D#] when all things won't
[D# open] end
REPEAT VERSE 1:
OUTRO:
[D#] Everything is going wrong, I've lost everything I had
I have to sing this sad song, To get back to her
And I m gonna sing this song to you;
And I want you, and I want you, and I want you, and I want you
And I wanna tell you, everything is going through my mind,
And I want to sing and I want to sing,
And I want to sing and I want to sing, this song with you
