When I look in the mirror I can't believe what I see

Tell me, who's that funky dude starin' back at me?

Broken, beaten down can't even get around

Shivering in the cold, I'm bitter and alone

G G D D Am Am E E
Excuse the bitchin' - I shouldn't complain
G G D D Am Am E E
I should have no feeling, 'cuz feeling is pain
G G D D Am Am E E
As everything I need is denied me
G G D D Am Am E E
And everything I want is taken away from me

But who do I got to blame? Nobody but me

Screw this crap, I've had it! I ain't no Mr. cool

G G D D Am Am E E
I ain't gonna hurt nobody, ain't gonna cause a scene
G G D D Am Am E E
I just need to admit I want sugar in my tea

Hear me? Hear me? I want sugar in my tea!

hum... I have a naïve question...

Do I have to tune the uku half a step down (F#-B-D#-G#) and play the original chords patterns, or should I keep the standard C tuning (GCEA) and transpose the music sheet (using the tool provided by the website) ?
