[Verse 1]
E7
  Lady luck and four leaf clovers
Won't be as hurt I feel all over
My life was one special occasion
                                      C#7
'Til you leave in depth with the situation

[Chorus]
     D7   D#7 E7
Well well l'm standing on shakey ground,
yay
Ever since you put me down, oh ho ho
Standing on shakey ground, yay
                           C#7  D7 D#7
Ever since you put me down,   ah

[Verse 2]
E7
  My car got repossessed this morning,
yay
Harder times I haven't seen in years
Girl,
you better throw me life preserver yay
                                    C#7
'Cause I'm about to drown in my own tears

[Chorus]
     D7   D#7  E7
Well well well standing on shakey ground,
yay
Ever since you put me down, oh ho ho
Standing on shakey ground, oh
                            C#7 D7 D#7
Ever since you put me down, oaa_a__
E7 C#7     D7   D#7  E7
      Well well well standing on shakey ground,
yay
Ever since you put me down

Standing, standing, standing on shakey ground,
D7 D#7
