Lyrics

So you found a place where the grass is (Ebsus2)green er

And you jumped the fence to the oth er side

Is it good?

Are they giv ing you a world I could nev er pro vide?

Well, I hope you’re proud of your big de (Ebsus2)ci sion

Yeah, I hope it’s all that you want and more

Now you’re free From the ag o niz ing life I could nev er pro vide?

you were (Bb)liv ing be fore

And you say what you need to say So that you get to walk a way It would kill you to have to stay (Cm7)trapped when you’ve (Bbsus)got some thin’ new Well I’m sor ry you had it rough And I’m sor ry I’m not e nough Thank God they res (G)cued you

So you got what you (Eb)al ways want ed So you got your (Cm)dream come true.

Well, (Absus)good for you

(Bb)Good for (Cm)you (Bb)you (Absus2)You got a taste of a (Eb)life so per fect So you did what you (Cm7)had to do (Absus2)Good for you

(G)Good for you

Does it cross your mind to be slight ly (Ebsus2)sor ry?

Do you e ven care that you might be wrong?

Was it fun?

Well, I hope you had a blast while you (Bb)dragged me a long

And you say what you need to say And you play who you need to play And if some bod y’s in your way, (Cm7)crush them and (Bbsus)leave them be hind Well, I guess if I’m not of use Go a head, you can cut me loose Go a head now (G)I won’t mind

I’ll shut my mouth and I’ll let you go Is that (Bb)good for you?

Would that be (Fm7)good for you, (Ebmaj7)you, (Absus2)you?

I’ll just sit back while you run (Eb)the show Is that (Bb)good for you?

Would that be (Fm7)good for you, (Ebmaj7)you, (Ab)you?

All I need is some time to think But the boat is a bout to sink Can’t e rase what I wrote in ink Tell me how can I change (Ebmaj7)the sto (Absus2)ry?

All the words that I can’t take back Like a train com in’ off the track As the rails and the bolts all crack I got ta find a way to Stop it Stop it (CN.C.)Just let me (Bbsus2)out So you got what you (F)al ways want ed So you got your (Dm7)dream come true (Bbsus2)good for you

(A7)Good for you

(A)Good (Dm)for (A7)you

So you got what you al ways want ed
