Gene Pitney — Im Up To My Neck In Iou Chords

I'm Up To My Neck In I.O.U

G                                             D
For twenty—two days I've stood in the welfare line
    D7                                 G
Without an education a job was hard to find
 			    G7                C
And up in front of me were ten thousand plus nine
                         G            D               G
And I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s and down to my last dime

G                                   D
I tried to sell some pencils on the street
    D7                             G
But found my luck to sell was just weak
			G7                C
I'm ashamed to have to pretend that I am blind
                         G            D               G    G7
But I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s and down to my last dime

         D 						  G
Well I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s, I owe everybody in town
     A                                 A7         D
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
