Lyrics

Woke up in Lon don yes ter day, found my self in the cit y near Pic ca (Em)dil ly.

Don’t real ly know how I got here, I got some pic tures on my phone.

New names and num bers that I don’t (C)know, ad dress to plac es like Ab bey (Em)Road.

Day turns to night, night turns to what (D)ev er we want.

We’re young e nough to say...

(G)Oh, this has got ta be good life.

This has got ta be good life.

This could real ly be a good life, good life.

I say, (G)oh, got this feel in’ that you can’t fight, like this cit y is on fire to night.

This could real ly be a good life, a good, good life.

(C)oh,

(Em)oh.)

To my friends in New York, I say hel (C)lo.

My friends in L.

A., they don’t know where I’ve been for the past few years or so, Par is to Chi na to Col o rad (G)o.

Some times there’s air planes I can’t jump (C)out.

Some times there’s bull sh** that don’t work (Em)now.

We all got our sto ries.

But please, tell (D)me e e e what there’s to com plain a bout.

When you’re hap py like a fool,

let it take you o ver.

When ev ’ry thing is out,

you got ta take it in.

A good, good life.

(C)oh,

(Em)oh.)

Hope less (CN.C.)ly I feel like there might be some thin’ that I’ll miss.

Hope less ly I feel like the win dow clos es so, so quick.

Hope less ly I’m tak ing a men tal pic ture of you now, ’cause hope less ly the hope is we have so much to feel good a bout.

(G)Oh, this has got ta be good life.

This has got ta be good life.

This could real ly be a good life, good life.

I say, (G)oh, got this feel in’ that you can’t fight, like this cit y is on fire to night.

This could real ly be a good life, a good, good life.

(C)oh,

(Em)oh.

(G)Oh,

(C)oh,

(Em)oh.)

To my friends in New York, I say hel (C)lo.

My friends in L.
