Just Dropped In To See What Condition My Condition Was In Cifras

This is a greatly simplified arrangement for novices. The actual song has a half-step up key change at the
start of the second and third verses (A Kenny Rogers trademark!). This arrangement simplifies the chords and
eliminates the key changes to make the song more approachable to newer players. Feel free to capo it anywhere
to suit your singing voice.
 
[Intro]
Em
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah...
Em
What condition my condition was in...
 
[Verse 1]
  Em                            A/E             Em
I woke up this morning with the sundown shining in.
  Em                                     B7
I found my mind in a brown paper bag but then,
  Em                          G
I tripped on a cloud and fell eight miles high,
   Cmaj7          A7
I tore my mind on a jagged sky.
  Em                 B7                   Em
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.
 
[Verse 2]
  Em                  A/E                       Em
I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in.
  Em                                               B7
I watched myself crawling out while I was crawling in.
      Em            G
I got up so tight I couldn't unwind,
  Cmaj7            A7
I saw so much that I broke my mind.
  Em                 Bm7                   Em
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.
 
[Verse 3]
    Em                          A/E                    Em
Someone painted 'April Fool' in big black letters on a dead end sign.
Em                                                                    B7
I've had my foot on the gas since I went off the road and blew out my mind.
Em                               G
Eight miles out of Memphis and I got no spare,
Cmaj7                A7
Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere.
  Em                 B7                   Em
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.
  Em                 B7                   Em
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.
 
[Outro]
Em
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah...
