Chords with lyrics
Key: G+G
Intro: G5G5
G+G
I've been long, a long way from here
Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos,
C majorC
And drank til I was thirsty again
G+G
We went searching through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo
C majorC
And Benny Goodman's corset and pen
D MajorD
Well, o.k. I made this up
C majorC D MajorD
I promised you I'd never give up
A minorAm C majorC
If it makes you happy
G+G D MajorD
It can't be that bad
A minorAm C majorC
If it makes you happy
G+G
are you so sad
G+G
You get down, real low down
You listen to Coltrane, derail your own train
C majorC
Well who hasn't been there before?
G+G
I come round, around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread
C majorC
And serve you french toast again
D MajorD
Well, o.k. I made this up
C majorC D MajorD
I promised you I'd never give up
A minorAm C majorC
If it makes you happy
G+G D MajorD
It can't be that bad
A minorAm C majorC
If it makes you happy
E minorEm
Then why the hell are you so sad
G+G
We've been far, far away from here
Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos
C majorC
And everywhere in between
D MajorD
Well, o.k., we get along
C majorC D MajorD
So what if right now everything's wrong?
A minorAm C majorC
If it makes you happy
G+G D MajorD
It can't be that bad
A minorAm C majorC
If it makes you happy
G+G
