 D     A    Bm     A        D     A    Bm     A
Ooh   Ooh   Ooh   Ooh  ;   Ooh   Ooh   Ooh   Ooh


VERSE:
   D                G            D                  G
I went to a garden party to reminisce with my old friends.

    D         A       Bm    D         G        A       D
A chance to share old memories   and play our songs again.

 D                         G     D                G
When I got to the garden party, they all knew my name,

    D       A     Bm    D    Em7        A        D
But no one recog-nized  me,   I didn`t look the same


CHORUS:
 D         G   A     D    Bm      G          A      D
But it`s, all right now.       I learned my lesson well.

              G      A     D   Bm          Em7      A      D
You see you, can`t please everyone, so you got to please yourself.


VERSE:
 D                G             D             G
People came from miles around. Everyone was there.

 D     A         Bm   D           G        A       D
Yoko brought her walrus.   There was magic in the air.

 D               G       D              G
And over in the corner, much to my surprise,

D    A            Bm       D       Em7     A       D
Mr. Hughes hid in Dylan`s shoes   wearing his disguise.


CHORUS:
 D         G   A     D    Bm        G         A      D
But it`s, all right now.        I learned my lesson well.

              G      A     D   Bm          Em7      A      D
You see you, can`t please everyone, so you got to please yourself.

 G  A  D  Bm   G    A     D    G A D Bm    Em7 A  D
Lot da da,    lot n da da da


VERSE:
D                      G            D                       G
I played them all the old songs, I thought that`s why they came.

D       A        Bm   D    G          A        D
No one heard the music,    We didn`t look the same.

D                 G          D             G
I said hello to `Mary Lou`, she belongs to me.

        D      A            Bm    D      Em7     A        D
When I sang a song about a honky tonk,   it was time to leave.


CHORUS:
 D         G   A     D    Bm          G          A     D
But it`s, all right now.          I learned my lesson well.

              G      A     D   Bm          Em7      A      D
You see you, can`t please everyone, so you got to please yourself.

 G  A  D  Bm   G    A     D      G A D Bm     Em7 A  D
Lot da da,    lot n da da da


VERSE:
 D                     G               D                      G
Someone opened up the closet door and out stepped Johnny B. Goode,

 D          A          Bm        D       G           A        D
Playing guitar like a ringin` a bell    and lookin` like he should.

D                            G          D                G
If you gotta play at garden parties, I wish you a lotta luck

         D   A       Bm      D      Em7           A        D
But if memories were all  I sang,     I`d rather drive a truck.


CHORUS:
 D         G   A     D    Bm          G          A     D
But it`s, all right now.          I learned my lesson well.

              G      A     D   Bm          Em7      A      D
You see you, can`t please everyone, so you got to please yourself.

 G  A  D  Bm   G    A     D      G A D Bm     Em7 A  D
Lot da da,    lot n da da da


CHORUS:
 D         G   A     D    Bm          G          A     D
But it`s, all right now.          I learned my lesson well.

              G      A     D   Bm          Em7      A      D
You see you, can`t please everyone, so you got to please yourself.
