Lyrics

So to night you made some mis takes. I’ll ad mit, you (Bm7)hit a few bumps. But I hate to see you like this, down on your luck, down in the dumps. Though hope might (Bm)seem in short sup ply, you have to move (Em7)on. You have to (Gsus2)try. So come out of the (D)dump ster. Don’t leave me (Bm7sus4)stand ing here. Come out of the (G)dump ster. It’s O K, the (Em7)coast (Gmaj7)is (A)clear. The (F#)cop cars are (Bm)leav ing. Chan nel Five’s packed (D)up its crew. So come out of the (Em7)dump ster. I’ll be (G)right here (A7sus4)wait ing for (D)you. So you’re back in the (D)dump ster. Well, that’s like a (Bm7sus4)met a phor. Ev ’ry one has a (G)dump ster, a stum bling block they (Em7)can’t (Gmaj7)ig (A)nore. But to (F#)fight it makes you (Bm)strong er, and next time you might stand. So come out of that (G)dump ster. (Gsus2)Here, take a (A7sus4)hold of my hand. So, your (G)first day back was n’t (A)all you an ti ci pat ed. I (G)bit the best man. The (A7sus4)bride had to be se dat ed. (Bm)This sort of thing hap pens (Bm)all the time. When (D)life gives you gar bage, you use it to (G)climb. Look, you’re out of the (Eb)dump ster. Was that so hard af ter all? It was on ly a (Ab)dump ster. And from (Eb)here it (Fm7)looks (Abmaj7)so (Bb)small. So you’re (G)back where you (Cm)start ed, on your way to suc (Eb)cess. So will you sing at my (Ab)wed ding? No.
