	Story Behind the Song I've dealt with repeated depression as long as I can remember, so this last time, while unemployed and experiencing it more intensely, I decided to put the feelings into words, again. Not that it helps, but it's a way to work through it without doing anything foolish. Lyrics The Matter with Me C What the Matter Baby? G Tell you I don’t know C Gotta darkness in my heart G Won’t let go F Send shiver down my ankles My arms are weak G C Stomach aches from a sadness so old and deep My baby, wife and doggie Can’t get through I’m sitting staring at nothing I just can’t move I try to think of reasons Nothing comes to mind It ain’t the first time I been in the bind G Oh mama What the matter with me? C Trailed by ghosts and shadows Won’t let me be Am Traveling peaks and valley American rivers and roads F How much longer I can carry this load G Oh mama what the matter with me Sometimes I’m high and mighty Other days I wanna stay in bed Gotta get to working before it leaves my head I tried talking and praying It don’t hold no hope All that pharmacia Don’t help me cope Oh mama, what the matter with me
