Chords with lyrics
Better Than Ezra
A augmentedA Lifetime
From the album “Closer”
Standard Tuning
Cadd9 
G/BG/B
Allie woke up 8AM
G Fill 1
Graduation day…
(Now you just repeat that progression until…)
D MajorD
And you were standing
E MajorE 
FF
On the hood of the car
Singing out loud
G
When the sun came up.
Chorus:
Cadd9Cadd9
And I know I wasn't right,
G/B G Fill 1
But it felt so good…
(repeat this for the rest of chorus until)
D E MajorE FF
…And three and a half minutes
G+G
It felt like a lifetime
(Now those are the main parts of the song, just repeat them as necessary!
The bridge is played only on an electric, and sounds kinda weak acoustic,
so you might wanna play it using barre chords instead of octaves)
Here’s the riff to the bridge.
G+G|-9--7--5--7--7-7-5--5-5-/-7--7-7----------------
D MajorD|------------------------------------------------
A augmentedA|-7--5--3--5--9-5-3--3-3-/-5--5-5----------------
That kinda shows the timing, but listen to the CD while you give it a go.
