[Verse 1]
  G                 Cadd9
A woman sits in her bedroom,
    G                        Cadd9
And pulls a comb through her hair.
G                        Cadd9
Studies the lines on her face that tell of
    G                 Cadd9
The years that went nowhere.
      G                    Cadd9
She’s holding tight to the memories,
      G                     Cadd9
She’s carrying round in her head.
    G                        Cadd9
She tells herself that she’s not going down,
           G              Cadd9
And spends another day in bed.

          C                  G
But she’s doing the best she can
      C               G
Maybe that’s not good enough
          C             G
But she’s doing all she can
           D                      C           G
Yes, she’s making the best of her suffocation blues

[Verse 2]
  G                     Cadd9
A young man sits in his bedroom.
    G                        Cadd9
And pulls a comb through his hair.
G                    Cadd9
Studies the paper he bought today,
     G               Cadd9
That says he’s going nowhere.
G                Cadd9
Nobody asked his opinion,
   G                    Cadd9
So why should he try or care.
G                        Cadd9
How can you strive to be so satisfied,
     G                                Cadd9
When there’s nobody knows that you’re there?
 
[Chorus]
         C                 G
But he’s doing the best he can.
      C               G
Maybe that’s not good enough.
         C            G
But he’s doing all he can.
          D                      C           G      Cadd9  G7sus2/A  Cadd9 G7sus2/A Cadd9
Yes, he’s making the best of his suffocation blues, blues, blues,
G      Cadd9  G7sus2/A  Cadd9 G7sus2/A Cadd9  G
Blues, blues, blues,
 
[Outro]
Cadd9       G
Suffocation blues,
Cadd9       G
Suffocation blues,
Cadd9       G
Suffocation blues,
Cadd9       G      Cadd9  G7sus2/A  Cadd9  G7sus2/A Cadd9  G
Suffocation blues, blues, blues,    blues, blues,   blues, blues.
