Chords with lyrics

Another of my favourites from early 70's London pub rockers Brinsley S.

Intro = C majorC G+G C majorC G+G C majorC G+G C majorC

Chorus
C majorC
Happy doing what we're doing
        G+G
Happy doing it right

And we'll keep on doing what we're doing
             C majorC
So long as the feeling is right

Verse 1
C majorC
Well I was scumbag bound for a couple a days
           G+G
Talked to a friend of mine
                                C majorC
He said I've got to do the thing I do do best before I lose my mind

I said man I ain't no guru
                G+G
Who am I to say what's right or wrong
                                    C majorC
But it might help to shed a little light on the matter if we sing this song

Chorus

We're happy doing what we're doing
        G+G
Happy doing it right

And we'll keep on doing what we're doing

So long as the feeling is right

Verse 2
C majorC
Well a man he came along and told us it was wrong
             G+G
To think like the way we are

We all found it funny when he told us 'bout the money
                  C majorC
And somethin' 'bout a rock and roll star

Yeah well I said to him you can't understand
               G+G
and we don't even care if you do

'Cus we got it tight and we're rockin' here tonight
                    C majorC
and we're hopin' that it's rockin' for you

Chorus
C majorC

So long as the feeling is right

Verse 3
C majorC
Well her daddy got a fright at the letter she left
            G+G
It cut her momma to the bone

So they loaded themselves up on an express train
               C majorC
To bring the little girl back home

They finally ran into ground at a bar downtown
              G+G
It was much worse than they feared

For she was up on the stand with a four piece band
           C majorC
And this is what they hear

Chorus
C majorC
We're happy doing what we're doing
        G+G
Happy doing it right

And we'll keep on doing what we're doing
             C majorC
So long as the feeling is right

Chorus
C majorC
Happy doing what we're doing
        G+G
Happy doing it right

And we'll keep on doing what we're doing
             C majorC   C majorC G+G C majorC
So long as the feeling is right
