Good Health And Happiness

C

     C
You don't change the world, it changes you
   E
I got a bit older, and long in the tooth
   F
I been around the block a number of times
        G                                   C
And I'm still trying to find a reasonable rhyme

   C
I learnt to appreciate the bird in my hand
     E
The elephant in my room, the monkey on my back
     F
The canary in my coal mine is alive and kicking
     G                                       C
We'd better act now while my heart's still beating
F                 C              G                    C
It's not always what you say, sometimes it's how you say it
F                   C              G                 C
It's not where you are, but it's where you're going to
F                        C         G             C
The world outside the window's demanding the impossible
F                G                    C
Well I just want whatever's best for you

         C
Well I'm at it again, and it's no surprise
Em                           E
Pimping out my private life under the lights
   F
A tune in my heart and my heart on my sleeve
 G                            C
Whistling a melody into the breeze

     C
My thoughts and my feelings are jumbled in verse
    E
I try to make some sense of it all come the chorus
     F
But I'll keep on going 'til the going gets gone
           G                                    C
I'm still trying to remember the words to that song
     F               C                 G               C
But it don't matter what you say, it matters what you do
F                   C              G               C
It's not where you are, but it's where you want to be
F                   C              G                         C
Let them fuss and fight, if they think they'll fill they're pockets up
F            G            C
Let's only take what we need

             C
And that is easy to say but what is it we need
E          Bm          E
I'll take good health and happiness
 F
Both are important, neither can be bought
       G                                        C
Our health is out of our hands and left to the Gods

         C
And the secret of happiness is anyone's guess
      E
One minute I know it, the next I forget
       F
But I know it's out there on a familiar shore
            G                                         C
And that's why I've been singing these songs for so long
    F                C               G               C
But it don't matter what I sing, or who I'm singing to
     F                   C           G       C
As long as the road I'm on leads me back to you
    F           G        F         G
My bird in my hand, my wife in my arms
 F           G               C
Somewhere secure, safe and warm

C E7 F G

F           G                C      Am
Somewhere secure, safe and warm
F           G               Am   C      Am
Somewhere secure, safe and warm
F            G               C
Somewhere secure, safe and warm
